The State Government has announced a series of grants to help multicultural and multifaith communities to host Covid-safe events.
Minister for Multicultural Affairs Ros Spence announced that grants of up to $50,000 through the Multicultural Festivals and Events Program would be available to help local organisations host Covid-safe events – both face-to-face and digital.
The program recognises the important role community connection and celebration play in all communities, and enables Victorians to celebrate the diversity and multiculturalism.
With the celebration of Harmony Day this Sunday 21 March, and Cultural Diversity Week taking place from 21-28 March, it’s the perfect time for organisations to apply for activities that celebrate diversity.
Funding will support events held between 1 July and 31 December 2021. Applications close at 3:00pm on Wednesday 21 April 2021.
