Creative Kids provides funding for Saskatchewan children and youth to participate in creative activities such as art, music, dance, theatre, and culture.
Creative Kids funding is:
- based on a family’s financial need
- open to Saskatchewan residents
- available for children ages 4 to 19
- for activities that are primarily artistic and/or cultural
Creative Kids may provide up to $750 for a child’s activity. If an application is funded, Creative Kids pays the instructor or service provider directly.
Families can apply to their local Creative Kids committee at one of several application deadlines.
Application
Families may apply for up to $750 per child for the length of their activity. This amount resets every June 1.
- For instance, Kylie would like to take a dance class from September 1 to June 15. Kylie could apply at the June or August deadline for each year's classes and the amount granted is for the whole September to June cycle.
If a class costs more than $750, Kylie might receive up to $750 for the entire dance season. The family would be responsible for any fees beyond the $750.
