METRO Vancouver is accepting submissions for its annual regional cultural grants.

A total of $150,000 in funding assistance is available to arts and culture organizations for regional projects, with a maximum of $10,000 per project grant. These annual grants support region-serving arts and culture projects including creation, production, dissemination, audience development, research, project staff and administrative capacity building.

“As demonstrated by last year’s grant submissions and awards, our region’s arts community is resilient and endlessly creative,” said Sav Dhaliwal, Chair of the Metro Vancouver Board of Directors. “We are pleased to support arts organizations in finding new ways to reach and enrich the lives of residents, while also staying within ongoing public health orders.”
