MAC MEMBERSHIP
Join MAC’s creative community
Mississauga Arts Council (MAC) membership unlocks great benefits, career development opportunities, and gives you access to a network of artists and art supporters building a thriving and vibrant cultural sector in Mississauga. Our community members are actively involved in shaping the direction and growing the momentum of the arts in Mississauga.
Membership is open to all artistic disciplines, and MAC welcomes arts supporters, non-artists, and patrons to become members and support the work of our artist community.
“As an artist, I can’t say enough about how supportive MAC is! They are always providing opportunities, guidance and support. MAC is a treasure for Mississauga artists!”
“One of my first ever spoken word performances in this community was run by MAC. I am honoured and proud to be from this community and to represent Mississauga.”
“Connecting with other artists in this vibrant community and being a part of MAC is a special part of my life, and I don’t take it for granted.”

Health insurance through the Arts & Entertainment Plan®
Need personal health insurance? Membership in the Mississauga Arts Council comes with access to the popular Arts & Entertainment Plan — an affordable health insurance plan offered by the not-for-profit insurer AFBS. And accessing the plan has become even easier with the quoting and online enrollment functionality which boasts the fastest application process in Canada.
The Arts & Entertainment Plan® is designed to help artists manage their health care costs. Mississauga Arts Council members are guaranteed acceptance* into the plan, with no medical questionnaires necessary and no refusals based on pre-existing conditions.
There are two plan options: Standard and Comprehensive. Both options offer dental, prescription drug, extended health care (hospital room, acupuncture, massage etc…), and travel emergency medical coverage. Both options also provide life and AD&D insurance and a Member and Family Assistance Program. There’s a monthly payment option available and premiums may be tax deductible.
The Arts & Entertainment Plan® website will give you a price quote in just two steps and it enables you to enroll in the plan and pay online by credit card.
