Grants for local festivals in the city

Local organisations planning an event or festival in the city in the coming months are being encouraged to find out about the Galway City Council Local Community Festivals Grant Awards Scheme 2009.

In previous years, small, local festivals around the city have received support to involve and engage local people to contribute to a sense of community in old and new estates and areas.

Grants will not be awarded for occasional or ‘once-off’ events such as musical performances or sports days as this scheme is quite specifically designed to support small-scale local events organised by local people in 2009.

An application form is available from the city council on www.galwaycitycouncil.ie and it includes the criteria that will be used for assessing eligibility. Completed application forms should be returned by Friday May 22 to the Community & Enterprise Department, Galway City Council, City Hall, College Road. The decisions on grant-aid will be made in early June.
