IMPORTANT NOTES
- The SAT wishes to encourage different cultural communities, Indigenous peoples, all gender identities and age groups to participate, including first artistic experiences.
- In a desire to represent local artists, Montreal-based artists will be prioritized. However, submissions from artists based elsewhere in Quebec or Canada will also be considered.
- This is not a booking offer: this call is not open to proposals such as DJ sets, promotional launches or live audiovisuals.
- This is not a grant or a call for projects in residence. Our next calls will be announced in the Residencies section
- Given the number of submissions we receive and the limited number of presentation opportunities, only selected projects will be contacted.
- If you submit a project and it is selected for this call, you automatically agree that the descriptions, biographies, images, videos and audio files submitted with your application can be used by the SAT for promotional purposes on various platforms (websites, Facebook pages, etc.) for an unlimited period of time.
