City of Vancouver invests $2.25 million in elevating and celebrating the cultural diversity of Vancouver
City Council approved over $2.25 million in grants for 106 non-profit cultural organizations today. Seven local artists will also receive live-work or work-only studios below-market rents to support their work.
