Summary
The purpose of this report is to recommend the 2017 Culture Build Investment Program grant allocations for five non-municipally owned cultural facilities. Funding for the Culture Build Investment Program was approved by City Council as part of the Economic Development and Culture Division's 2017 operating budget.
The Culture Build Investment Program provides matching funds to assist Toronto's not-for-profit cultural sector with state of good repair capital projects. The arts and cultural organizations that are supported by the program provide a wide variety of opportunities for Toronto residents to engage in the arts as creators, participants, volunteers or audience members.
The allocations recommended in this report are the result of a review of eligible applications by a peer advisory committee. All applications were received by the February 3, 2017 deadline and assessed by the committee according to established criteria. The program is administered in accordance with the City of Toronto Community Grants Policy as adopted by City Council.
