As part of the Statistical Insights on the Arts series, Kelly Hill will conduct four presentations in 2010-11 for no speaking / preparation fee. The four no-fee presentations for 2010-11 have been chosen. They are:

• A statistical portrait of the visual arts in Quebec and Canada, Montreal, February 2011, Le regroupement des artistes en arts visuels du Québec.
• Arts in the Economy and Civil Society: Understanding the Benefits, City of St. John’s, February/March 2011.

The speaking fee (covering preparation time) is funded by the Department of Canadian Heritage, the Canada Council for the Arts and the Ontario Arts Council in conjunction with funding for the Statistical Insights on the Arts series.

We wish to thank all 11 groups that submitted a no-fee presentation request. There were simply more strong proposals than could be funded.
