Art gallery gets relief funding from province
The Art Gallery of Greater Victoria is among 120 arts and culture organizations on Vancouver Island benefiting from $3.5 million in provincial grants.
The art gallery will use its share of the funds to hire a digital assets co-ordinator and an educator to develop and deliver online programming.
The funding is part of the provincial government’s Expanded Arts and Culture Resilience Supplement delivered through the BC Arts Council. Organizations can use the funds for operating costs, to pay artists and to protect or restore jobs such as theatre technicians, production designers or arts administrators.
