Who We Are
-
Canadian Artists’ Representation/Le Front des artistes canadiens (CARFAC) is incorporated federally as a non-profit corporation that is the national voice of Canada’s professional visual artists. As a non-profit association and a National Art Service Organization, our mandate is to promote the visual arts in Canada, to promote a socio-economic climate that is conducive to the production of visual arts in Canada, and to conduct research and engage in public education for these purposes.
-
The CARFAC National Board of Directors is comprised of volunteer CARFAC members who are practicing artists and represent all areas of Canada, from coast to coast to coast.
-
CARFAC has what visual artists need – with resources on artist’s fees, exporting, taxes, grants, copyright, insurance, marketing, and more! As a member of CARFAC, you have access to a number of important resources that could easily save you the cost of membership.
