SAC asks that artists who have not been significantly impacted—i.e., have full-time jobs, support from a partner, etc.—do not apply for this grant. Examples of artists who should apply include:
A musician who has lost income due to cancellation of paid gigs.
An artist without a full-time job struggling to pay for rent and essential services.
A theatre designer who has lost their job and whose unemployment has run out
