- The Canada Council for the Arts (French: Conseil des arts du Canada), commonly called the Canada Council, is a Crown corporation established in 1957 as an arts council of the Government of Canada. It acts as the federal government's principal instrument for funding public arts, as well as for fostering and promoting the study and enjoyment of, and the production of works in, the arts. The Canada Council fulfills its mandate primarily through providing grants and services to professional Canadian artists and arts organizations in dance, interdisciplinary art, media arts, music, opera, theatre, writing, publishing, and the visual arts. In addition, the Canada Council administers the Art Bank, which operates art rental programs and an exhibitions and outreach program. The Canada Council Art Bank holds the largest collection of contemporary Canadian art in the world. The Canada Council is also responsible for the secretariat for the Canadian Commission for UNESCO and the Public Lending Right Commission. The Canada Council for the Arts reports to Parliament through the Minister of Canadian Heritage and is governed by an 11-member Board. The Board consists of a Chair and a Vice-Chair—currently Jesse Wente and Marie Pier Germain, respectively—along with nine other members from around the country. Along with the Director and CEO Simon Brault, they are appointed by the Governor-in-Council for fixed terms. (en)
