There is only one week left to apply for up to $80,000 to make the city centre or Braddon more appealing, active and enjoyable.
The City Renewal Authority will provide up to $175,000 in City Grants for projects that will take place before 1 July 2018.
Applications for grants, which opened on 7 February, will close on Wednesday 14 March.
The grants are funded through the City Centre Marketing and Improvement Levy, a fee paid by property owners in the city centre, which transferred to the City Renewal Authority from 1 January 2018.
City Renewal Authority chief executive Malcolm Snow encouraged applicants to put forward proposals that would positively benefit the city centre.
“There is only a week left to apply for grants and we really want to see projects that contribute to a lively city centre and encourage creativity, innovation and diversity in the public realm,” Mr Snow said.
Grants are available for a variety of purposes, including:
- events and activations;
- arts activities;
- short-term installations;
- marketing and promotion; and
- research and development.
A separate process will start in the coming months for grant applications for activities in the 2018-19 financial year.
