The City of Vancouver announced today (January 19) that city council approved a total of $8,406,150 in grants for 144 cultural organizations to help ensure their programs and services remain accessible to artists, cultural communities, and citizens.

However, due to current economic conditions resulting from the pandemic, the funding will be available to most recipients immediately.
