Apr 22, 2022 | 12:15 PM

Grant applications are now open for this year’s Alberta Culture Days celebrations.

The province says grants of up to $10,000 are available to community non-profit organizations to offset the cost of planning and hosting events, showcasing local talent and highlighting existing cultural programs in their communities.

Cultural Days will take place throughout September. Grant applications will be accepted until May 12, and grant recipients will be notified the following month.

There are three categories for celebration sites:

  • Feature Celebration Sites, which offer three days of programming throughout September and are eligible for grants of $10,000
  • Host Celebration Sites, which offer two days of programming throughout September and are eligible for grants of $5,000
  • Pop Up Celebration Sites, which are one-day programming events offered in September, and are eligible for grants of $1,000

Criteria, reporting information and all forms needed to apply are available online.
