Peer jury simulation: Understanding the process of evaluating grants for artists

These workshops are open to all artists at all stages of their career. For emerging artists and those who have never been a member of a peer jury: gain confidence in your ability to write excellent grant applications and identify the strong elements to put forth in an application.

The Association acadienne des artistes professionnel.le.s du Nouveau-Brunswick (AAAPNB) and the New Brunswick Arts Board (artsnb) are organizing a jury simulation to help artists:

  • Understand the steps leading to the evaluation of grant applications
  • Understand how grants are awarded to artists
  • Strengthen their future grant applications
  • Increase their confidence and provide experience as peer jury members

Join Dominique Léger, Program Officer at the New Brunswick Arts Board (artsnb), to demystify the peer jury process. Before the jury simulation, a 30 minute presentation will be given to explain the jury reunion process at artsnb in order to prepare participants for the simulation.

Actively participate in the evaluation of the fictitious applications during the simulation (please allow time before the simulation day to read the fictitious applications that will be shared with you one week before the simulation).

Register to be a member of the jury simulation by sending an email to annik.landry@aaapnb.ca

*A Peer Jury Simulation Tour in English in partnership with ArtsLink NB will take place in various communities across the province in 2025. More details to come.
