Raising the profile of Canadian art by supporting Canadian artists
Art is a voice. And in Canada – where our unique diversity of language, landscape and passion nurtures the creative spirit like few other places on earth – our artists comprise a chorus. Sometimes elegant, sometimes discordant. Through sculpture and paint, video and design software, cameras and conté crayons, the creative are saying something.
Our work is beautiful.
Our work is unsettling.
It explores darkness. It illuminates.
It tells of history, rooted in our land and experience.
It imagines the future, fearsome or dazzling.
In a country so creatively diverse, art is an anthem. The Society of Canadian Artists wants the world to know the tune.
Call for Elected membership Applications
The Society of Canadian Artists is now accepting applications for Elected Membership. This is an adjudicated process that occurs once a year in the spring. Prospective applicants are required to submit 10 images of their work along with their CV. Our jurors, from across Canada who work in various styles and mediums, review each application independently. Juror results are then reviewed and those applicants whose work and experience meet our high standards are offered Elected membership.
