We\u2019ve successfully laid down the foundation of a new organization: setting up payroll, HR, contracts, bookkeeping, financial reporting, Board meetings, complying with CRA and Corporations Canada, issuing charitable tax receipts, banking, setting up Paypal &amp; CanadaHelps, sent out numerous proposals to foundations, and have started to apply for Arts Service grants with government granting programs. With the building of strong organizational foundation, we can slowly build up programming and projects again!<\/li><li>Here\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/tidescanada.org\/blog\/leadership-and-capacity-building\/blog-catching-up-with-artbridges-a-new-chapter-begins-for-former-shared-platform-project\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">an article by Kate Rowswell<\/a> on the Tides Canada blog about ArtBridges\u2019 new beginnings after 10 great years with Tides.<\/li><li>We connected with over 390 (and growing!) community-engaged arts initiatives across Canada.
