[BCMA] Festival and Event Grants

[Moderated BCMA subscriber listserv.]

A correction:
Please note that this information comes from the Department of Canadian Heritage, not Heritage Canada The National Trust. I would appreciate people being aware of the differences between the government department and a non-profit charity.
