Coquitlam's Place des Arts and the Port Moody Ecological Society are among 31 recipients of Metro Vancouver arts and culture grants, which were announced last week.
The Regional Project Grants are aimed at helping research and produce new cultural programs, reach new audiences and cover staffing and administrative needs — up to a maximum of $10,000 each.
“Since 2011, close to 200 regional project grants have been awarded to over 80 organizations,” said Judy Villeneuve, the chairperson of Metro's regional cultural committee, in a news release. "Metro Vancouver’s Cultural Grants program supports organizations who have a long standing commitment to serving the region and fosters the efforts of new recipient organizations.”
