SAA in the News: Our Latest Report in Support of the Arts
On March 4th, 2026, the Saskatchewan Arts Alliance publicly released our new research report: Perspectives on the Arts & Culture Scene in Saskatchewan 2025.
This is a province-wide public opinion study conducted by Insightrix in fall 2025 with 400 Saskatchewan residents. The sample was built to reflect the province by age, gender, and region using 2021 Saskatchewan Census data, with a margin of error of plus or minus 4.9 percentage points. Executive Director, Em Ironstar, shared three key messages in the report:
- Key Message 1: Arts and Culture Are Valued Across Saskatchewan
- Key Message 2: Government Funding Matters, And The Public Understands That
- Key Message 3: Affordability Is a Barrier, And Saskatchewan People Are Naming It
