The Royal Canadian Academy of Arts (RCA), an enduring and dynamic national institution founded in 1880, is committed to the encouragement and cultivation of the arts of painting, sculpture, architecture and design in the graphic, decorative and industrial arts. The Academy seeks to celebrate the achievements of excellence and innovation by visual artists across Canada, to encourage new generations of artists, and to facilitate the exchange of ideas about visual culture, for the benefit of all Canadians. The Royal Canadian Academy of Arts Foundation (RCA Foundation) is a registered charitable trust and operates as the fundraising vehicle of the Academy. It is managed by a board of nine trustees. Audited financial statements are available on request. Donors are issued a charitable tax receipt and are recognized in all RCA publications and media releases. Fundraising efforts by the RCA Foundation support the Academy’s three major activities: the RCA Trust Fund which provides grants to public galleries across Canada to purchase and exhibit works of living Canadian artists; the RCA Scholarship Fund which provides financial assistance to young Canadians for post-graduate study in the visual arts, and the RCA Programme Fund, which mounts exhibitions, produces publications and other public activities to foster awareness and appreciation of the visual arts.
