Please find attached the Request For Proposal (RFP) for the project Research On The State Of Audiences For Arts Programming For Children And Youth from the Canada Council for the Arts. We invite you (research agencies, consultants or teams of researchers) to submit a proposal to provide quantitative and qualitative research and analysis services to the Canada Council.
The Canada Council wishes to gain an understanding of the status of youth cultural participation and attendance, through an exploration of the current state of the Canadian theatre for young audiences (TYA) and children’s festivals sector. The analysis will take into account the differences between types of engagement, ranging from the receptive to the participatory. The research attempts to gain an understanding of the current state of the sector within the broader frame of changing family and youth engagement patterns. Are the values, behaviours and interests of these demographic groups changing and what are the implications for the arts?
Proposals must be submitted via email, in English or French, in a pdf format and must be delivered no later than 5pm on October 16, 2015.
