Arts & Culture

Prince Albert is a vibrant artistic and cultural community. We have many talented artists from visual to theatre, literature to media, and music to dance. 

As an artist, you need to be paid for your work. This is your profession, just like other professions. Let's keep strengthening our artistic and cultural community. Here are some Artist Payment Guidelines to consider. 

Review what Event Organizers can consider for Artist Payment Guidelines.

5. Go to their show, exhibit, reading, or take their art class.
6. Donate to the arts if you're able.
