the success of Family Day 2019 and 2020, the Province of British
Columbia has once again partnered with the BC Museums Association to
provide one-time grants to support local museums, art galleries,
cultural institutions and First Nations communities in coordinating
family-based, admission-free community activities. <br><br>To ensure
that Family Day 2021 is safe as well as fun, grants of up to $1,000 are
available to support the creation of online cultural activities, and
grants of up to $1,250 are available for in-person activities to cover a
portion of the costs, such as art supplies, facility expenses,
equipment rentals, and enhanced cleaning and safety supplies for a free
Family Day community activity.<br><br></span></p><p style="line-height:1.2;word-break:break-word;font-size:14px;margin:0px"><b><span style="font-size:14px">Applications for Family Day grants close today.<br><br></span></b></p><p style="line-height:1.2;word-break:break-word;font-size:14px;margin:0px"><span style="font-size:14px"><b>Head to <a href="http://museumsassn.bc.ca/awards/bc-family-day-grants/">http://museumsassn.bc.ca/awards/bc-family-day-grants/</a> for all details and to submit your application.</b><br><br><br></span></p></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div><span style="color:rgb(102,102,102);font-family:arial,sans-serif"></span><div><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_signature" data-smartmail="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div><span style="color:rgb(102,102,102);font-family:arial,sans-serif"></span><div><i><span style="color:rgb(102,102,102);font-family:arial,sans-serif">The BC Museums Association Secretariat is located on the traditional lands of the Songhees and Esquimalt First Nations.
