The New Federal Government Children’s Arts Tax Credit

INTRODUCTION

Millions of Canadians enrol their children in artistic, cultural, recreational and developmental activities each and every year. These activities contribute to a child’s development and help create Canada’s next great artists. To help with the costs associated with children’s arts activities, the Next Phase of Canada’s Economic Action Plan proposes to introduce a Children’s Arts Tax Credit. The credit will be available for a wide range of activities that contribute to a child’s development and are not eligible for the Children’s Fitness Tax Credit.
