Although Artists In Canada does not actively censor content, we do ensure that sites entered into our database are arts-related, and relevant to the categories in which they are entered. Sites that do not meet our criteria will be removed from the directory. Sites that are placed in categories where they do not belong may be deleted or moved to an appropriate category at the discretion of the database administrator.

Links are actively monitored to ensure they are working. Links that are unavailable for more than 48 hours, or that frequently fail to respond when contacted, may be deleted from the directory.

Sites that are 'under construction' will be removed from our database unless they are nearly completed. If your site is in the early stages of development, please wait until it's ready to receive visitors before submitting it to our database.

• Art Galleries can be Canadian or international, and must display the works of several artists.
• Artist Galleries may also add themselves to the RESOURCE section if they have valid resource pages on their site.

• Artists (Canadian or international) or galleries who have online tutorials, workshops or other 'resource' information are invited to add their link to this section.
• International resource sites are encouraged to include themselves in our directory, provided they are related to the 'visual arts' in some way.
