Call for applications for Community Culture Development Fund – Culture Development category

Not-for-profit organizations that deliver arts, culture and heritage initiatives in Red Deer are invited to apply for funding through The City of Red Deer’s Community Culture Development Fund – Culture Development category.

City officials say this grant program, launched in 2016, provides financial support to assist organizations in building capacity to provide a service, managing a cultural facility, acting as an umbrella organization for other cultural organizations, developing new programs or services, or hosting a special event or festival.

The Culture Development category provides funding for up to three years, and applications are due September 30, 2022. A total of $400,000 is available, with a maximum of $30,000 per applicant.

A second category, Culture Opportunities, offers support for short-notice and/or one-time costs with the next funding cycle beginning January 2023.
