Our research supports the work, planning and advocacy of artists and arts organizations across Ontario, while increasing the public’s understanding of the economic, social and cultural impacts of the arts.

The OAC’s Research Office offers a range of activity and services, including:

  • Providing information on OAC’s grant statistics.
  • Conducting original research on the arts in Ontario.
  • Reviewing and summarizing external research on the arts.
  • Responding to requests for research and statistics about the arts.
