Canadian Eskimo Arts Council : In 1958 the Department of Northern Affairs and National Resources, as part of its mandate to administer Inuit Affairs, established an ad hoc committee to assist the graphic artists of the West Baffin Eskimo Co-operative at Cape Dorset. The demand for prints and other art and handicrafts increased rapidly as did the output from Cape Dorset and other co-operatives. Departmental officials faced with this volume of trade as well as the need to promote and market these products sought help from the private sector. The Canadian Eskimo Arts Committee was set up in 1961 to assist artists, advise the minister and approve those graphics to be released for sale. Composed of various experts in the field, the CEAC maintained an "arms-length" relationship with the department. Its members, however, were appointed by the minister and its funding was provided through the Northern Affairs Program budget.

The issue of northern arts continued to become increasingly more complex prompting the department to recommend to Cabinet that an Eskimo Art Council be created. While this proposal was approved on 19 November 1964 the new body did not meet until 5 June 1967 leaving the old CEA Committee to continue on an interim basis. The new council was composed of a maximum of twelve members who served three-year terms. Funding, as directed by Treasury Board submission No. 672152, 9 August 1967, was provided through the Northern Administration Branch budget. The chairman of the Council was to submit an annual report on CEAC activities to the Minister of Indian Affairs and Northern Development.

Arthur Laing, federal minister, addressed the inaugural meeting of the Canadian Eskimo Arts Council (CEAC) offering guidelines about its mandate. The principle duty was to advise the minister on matters relating to the promotion, marketing and quality control of Eskimo arts and crafts in Canada. No written terms of reference were provided although several versions were produced over the next twenty years. While the nature of its work was not always detailed the arms-length relationship from government was clearly defined. According to the 1986 terms of reference the CEAC was not "an agent of Her Majesty" and its members were not to be considered members of the Public Service. The ultimate separation of the CEAC from government occurred in September 1989 with the announcement by the Foundation. Funding for the new body will continue to be supplied by the Northern Affairs Program budget until March 31, 1994 at which point the IAF will be fully independent and self-supporting.
