Vancouver is allocating over $8.4 million in funding to help arts and culture organizations recover from the financial wallop of the COVID-19 pandemic.
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.
Under normal circumstances, these grants would normally be distributed in two parts: 40 percent given in January with the remaining amount in April.
However, due to current economic conditions resulting from the pandemic, the funding will be available to most recipients immediately.
