Financial Assistance
FACTOR offers a variety of programs to help artists and songwriters advance their careers. Visit their website to see which programs may apply to you.
Registrants should be aware that there is limited funding assistance available through FACTOR. FACTOR is not in any way affiliated with SongStudio – please direct your questions to the staff at FACTOR. However, many SongStudio participants have benefited from FACTOR’s programs in the past, and there is no cost to apply. Read very carefully the details of the programs to ensure you properly apply for assistance.
Also available to earning SOCAN members is the Professional Development Assistance Grant from the SOCAN Foundation. Visit https://www.socanfoundation.ca/grants/ for more information on eligibility and grant details.

PARENTS: Please note that SongStudio is not a summer youth camp. We welcome youthful participants, with this proviso: there are no special measures in place to ensure the safety of your teenager. It is up to you and the participant to determine if they are mature enough to take part in our activities and to take care of themselves. SongStudio will not be responsible for the safety or well-being of any of its participants, regardless of age.
