The Bowen Island Historians' Community Museum & Archives' application to
Direct Access was denied as well. The Historians can no longer afford to pay
for the Museum Curator position (the only paid position here), and as of
next Tuesday, the museum will be closing indefinitely. The archives will
remain open two to three days a week-our Archivist is an elderly volunteer
who has been with the Historians for close to 30 years, and we have another
long-time volunteer who comes in weekly. The Board of Directors will remain
active, working on acquiring other sources of revenue &c.
In solidarity,

Revelstoke Museum and Archives Direct Access Grant application was also
denied. We also planned to apply for Capital funding through Gaming to
install an elevator, but it looks as though this funding is no longer
available.

The Canadian Society for Asian Arts' Direct Access Grant application was
denied. The Gaming grant was THE major source of our revenue. This year we
have to cut staff time and programs significantly.

Hi everyone,
The Provincial Government has just cancelled Two Rivers Gallery's previously
awarded $20,000 grant from gaming funds. I am assuming that this will also
apply to the $20,000 grant that they awarded us for 2011.
The Gallery will need to make cuts to adjust to this.

Subject: [Bcma-l] More Gaming Funding denied
The Friends of the North Vancouver Museum & Archives Society has just been
notified that its application for Direct Access funding has been denied. The
grant had been requested for a summer day camp program at the Museum. Gaming
funds have supported this popular annual program for at least a decade.
The (somewhat) good news is that the total amount of our request was not
large. The bad news is that the money has already been spent to pay the
wages of a university student who ran the program this summer. This leaves
our Friends Society without money in the bank to pay for anything else for
the rest of the year.

We just received notice that we will not be receiving gaming funding. This
represents 13% of our total budget and 40% of our programming budget. No
appeals or reviews are allowed.
