If you’re responsible for an arts, heritage or cultural non-profit group in Port Coquitlam, the city’s inviting you to apply for a grant.
Until Sept. 30, the municipality will accept applications under its Community Cultural Development Investment Program.
And it’s asking administrators to attend a free workshop on Sept. 22 to help fill out the forms; the session, with Mary Ann Anderson of Little Dog Creative Consulting, takes place from 1 to 4 p.m. in the Gathering Place at Leigh Square Community Arts Village, next to PoCo city hall.
Grants up to $5,000 are up for grabs for projects, festivals, development and capacity building, among other things. Applications will be assessed by a review committee, whose decisions will be announced in early January.
Space for Anderson’s workshop on Sept. 22 is limited. Email arts@portcoquitlam.ca to save a spot.
