JOIN US FOR A CKCA Q&A SESSION
Do you have an idea for a project that focuses on arts and culture? Grants from the Columbia Kootenay Cultural Alliance (CKCA) could help.
These grants—funded by Columbia Basin Trust and managed by the West Kootenay Regional Arts Council—are available for all art disciplines, for both individuals and arts and culture organizations in the Columbia Basin.
CKCA’s next application period will open January 12, 2026, and close February 20, 2026, or March 6, 2026, depending on the program.
Q&A sessions
To learn more about these grants and how to apply, attend one of our FREE question-and-answer sessions. The events all take place online through Zoom.

Before you attend a session, we encourage you to watch the latest video about the specific program you’re considering applying to. Note: these videos will be available as of January 12, 2026, when the programs launch. To find the video, select the program that interests you and navigate to that program’s page. Afterwards, come to the Q&A session with your questions.
If you have questions about your specific project, rather than the programs themselves, contact us directly instead of asking them during a session.
