How to Apply for Active Membership

Apply for ACTIVE MEMBERSHIP
with Federation of Canadian Artists

Vertical Divider

If you’re an artist who is interested in participating in juried shows and honing your skills, then perhaps you’re ready to apply to become an Active member. To be eligible for Active status, applicants need to join the Federation of Canadian Artists as a Supporting Member first. There is no waiting period required between joining as a Supporting Member and applying for Active Status. You may apply for Active status  once your Supporting Membership registration is completed.

To apply for Active status, you will be required to submit a digital "portfolio" of your artwork; that is, 8 to 10 digital images that would meet FCA standards for exhibition. Your images will be juried by the national organization through the Vancouver headquarters of the FCA.

To learn more about applying for Active Status, or to start the application process, go to the FCA website at: https://artists.ca/membership_chapters/active_status

If you are already a Supporting Member of the Victoria Chapter, and have questions about applying for Active status, please feel free to chat with one of our Executive members.
