The Saskatchewan Craft Council is a registered charity and nonprofit organization in the province of Saskatchewan. We have existed since 1975 and hope to continue to help local artists flourish economically and creatively for many years to come.
Your donation supports:
- Our building is 110 years old and needs refurbishing. The SCC has been operating out of our historical building since 1990. It was built in 1912!
- The roof of the building needs repairs, which are necessary for the prevention of water issues, not to mention the safety of the precious artworks inside!
- The second-floor office flooring has been run down to less than acceptable condition (seriously, do you want to see the duct tape on the carpet?).
- Our building is a space for collaborating, problem solving, and dreaming of the future of craft in Saskatchewan. Our space allows us to connect, engage and celebrate craft and also to store equipment and supplies, photograph and promote artwork, and to package and ship craft items worldwide.
- Donations support our programming. We are mostly funded by Creative Saskatchewan, but there’s always a limit to what a government agency can supply. You can help us run SCC Fine Craft Shop, SCC Gallery, our online store, craft markets and events, our Professional Practices for Artists program, and more! Our reputable exhibitions program has supported the careers of hundreds of artists and our Shop helps generate income for many of our members.
- Help us pay our artists and staff. We always strive to pay CARFAC fees to artists involved in our exhibitions and who lead artist talks and workshops. We also have a hardworking group of staff members that are dedicated to our programs and activities.
None of this is possible without your support.
To our members and supporters — Thank you for all of the ways you have supported the SCC and kept us in operation for 50 years. We know that with your continued support, we can continue this legacy and do great things for Saskatchewan craft for many years to come.
