Artsvictoria.ca is operated on a non-profit basis, with funding from the City of Victoria and administrative support from The Victoria Arts Preservation and Promotion Society and The Indivision Network
Basic listings are free to everyone. However, you can get a big promotion boost by running a poster on the site. Posters appear under your listing, as well as in the sidebar of the site long in advance of your event.
Currently poster placement is not for sale. It is only available to those who help spread the word about ArtsVictoria.ca. You help spread the word, and we fill your account with ArtsVictoria poster credit, which you can use to run your posters.
Here’s a chart of some ways you can contribute, and how much poster credit you’ll receive:
