### WHAT DOES THIS PROGRAM SUPPORT? [...] Can I apply to other TAC grants?
Toronto Arts Council has two Grant Categories:
1. Discipline (e.g.: discipline-specific project grants and operating grants in Theatre, Dance, Music, etc.)
2. Strategic (e.g.: Animating Toronto Parks, Artists in the Library, Animating Historic Sites, Artreach, Open Door, etc.)
Visual Artists Program: Creation is a Discipline program. [...] Applicants to TAC’s 2025 Visual Artists Program may not apply to TAC’s 2025 Media Artists Program.
Individual artists may only receive one discipline-stream project grant and one strategic initiative grant per calendar year and can only have one open application in each stream at a time. Please note: if you apply for a Visual Artists grant you cannot also apply to another TAC program for the same project.
