Overview
Has the Covid-19 pandemic changed your understanding of care?
I Love My Gig Ontario is a 12-week fellowship bringing together 13 Ontario-based artists and other creative gig workers to reflect on lessons from the Covid-19 pandemic and explore collective ways such as mutual aid to face future crises with wise creativity and care. This virtual-only fellowship runs from February 10 to May 2, 2025.
This fellowship is proudly presented by ArtsPond with funding from Canada Council for the Arts and Ontario Arts Council. It is open to Indigenous, Racialized, d/Deaf, Disabled, or other justice-deserving creatives from suburban, rural, and remote communities across Ontario.
Fellows will :
- Be paid a $2,000 flat-fee
- Engage in visionary group discussions with other fellows
- Receive one-on-one mentorship and care from community elders and doulas
- Contribute to a collective publication that imagines transformative pathways to a caring, post-pandemic Ontario.
