13 Financial Report

The Saskatchewan Arts Alliance ended the 2018/2019 year with unrestricted net assets of $16,378. Core funding was provided by Memoranda of Understanding with SaskCulture Inc., thanks to the Saskatchewan Lotteries Trust Fund for Sport, Culture and Recreation ($140,000) and the Saskatchewan Arts Board ($70,000). SaskCulture decreased its support this year as SAA did not have the additional costs of the biennial Arts Congress.

The SAA will continue to be fiscally prudent, mindful of potential changes in the overall provin- cial funding environment.
