As a member, you'll receive our newsletter updates, weekly roundup of accessible arts opportunities, and invitations to connect with our community.

There's no need to purchase a separate subscription to receive these benefits.

What does membership include?

Membership gives you access to resources, opportunities, and a growing community of Deaf and Disabled creatives.

Discover opportunities

Receive our weekly Opportunities Newsletter featuring calls for artists, jobs, funding, professional development, and accessible arts events from across Canada.

Be part of our Artist Directory

Create an artist profile to share your practice, interests, and work with others. You decide whether your profile is public or private.

A public profile makes it easier for arts organizations, presenters, and other artists to discover your work. A private profile lets you remain a member without publicly listing your information.

Connect with community

Meet and exchange ideas with other Deaf and Disabled artists through our online gatherings, community programs, and Slack space!

Stay informed

Receive updates, stories, and resources from Creative Connector.

We welcome people working in all artistic disciplines, including visual arts, performing arts, music, writing, film, design, and interdisciplinary practices.

You don't need to have a professional portfolio, exhibition history, or an established artistic career to join.

What members are saying

I have gotten more than one person reach out to me as a cold call from the connector. It's working!

It was through Creative Connector that I first met my agent!

I love popping into the slack to see if there are any new opportunities to apply for or for connection, the emails are also wonderful!

I find that I dedicate a good amount of time to network through this space and it's not too overpowering or underwhelming.

Before Creative Connector, I didn't know where accessible arts jobs and opportunities were.
