Project Grants

Project Grants are available to a wide and diverse range of arts, cultural and community organizations to support projects, events and other activities that take place in North Vancouver.

In order to facilitate grant requests across such a broad spectrum of possible activities, events and other projects, the Arts Office accepts and reviews applications in the following categories:

	‘ARTS PROJECTS & EVENTS’		‘COMMUNITY ART PROJECTS’
	‘COMMUNITY CELEBRATIONS’		‘SIGNATURE EVENTS & FESTIVALS’

In 2012 the Arts Office introduced a new category, designed to streamline the application process for smaller, volunteer-run community groups:

‘GRANT REQUESTS UP TO $2,500’
