Funding Opportunities

Thanks to the funds raised through Saskatchewan Lotteries, SaskCulture is able to offer various funding programs to support cultural activity in Saskatchewan.

Proceeds from Saskatchewan Lotteries ticket sales go into the Saskatchewan Lotteries Trust Fund for Sport, Culture and Recreation and are in return invested into more than 12,000 sport, culture and recreation groups throughout Saskatchewan.  SaskCulture is Trustee for the Culture Section of the Trust.
