“This funding will help our artists, technicians and production staff continue to create engaging content that audiences anywhere in the world can watch and enjoy,” said Suzanne Lohnes-Croft, Minister of Communities, Culture and Heritage. “We continue to support digital solutions to help the arts and culture sector adapt and rebound from COVID-19, where the reality is that many people have moved their work online.”
Light House Go! will partner with Nova Scotia cultural organizations and individual artists to co-produce a minimum of 20 segments of performance content to share on its streaming service. The new Light House Arts Centre in downtown Halifax will support the service with studio space, filming equipment and technical staff.
Normally, the Creative Industries Fund helps expand the reach of Nova Scotia’s culture sector by supporting export activity. This year, due to COVID-19 travel restrictions, it has focused on digital alternatives.
