Showcase - OSAC's Annual Event

OSAC has tentatively scheduled Showcase 2021 for October 15-17 in Regina, however, could be postponed due to health orders that may impact the hosting of the event. Due to current COVID-19 orders OSAC Performing Arts Applications have been postponed until further notice.

We will keep in touch and share information about this and other Showcase information as things change and develop.

Jobs Lost in the Arts Sector

The COVID pandemic took a particularly heavy toll on the arts sector in 2020. One in four arts, entertainment and recreation workers lost their job in 2020, compared to 2019. That’s 114,400 artists, technicians, marketing staff, arts administrators and other cultural workers who could no longer earn a living out of their profession. Employment fell from 450,500 in 2019 to 336,100 jobs in 2020. That’s a 25.4% drop.

These statistics are from the Labour Force Survey, Statistics Canada’s monthly survey of employees.
