Richmond Neighbourhood Celebration Grant
The Neighbourhood Celebration Grant Program is designed to empower community members to plan and host high quality, free, grassroots events that connect Richmond residents with their local streets, parks and green spaces, and with each other! Past events supported by this program have included community block parties, picnics and family-friendly movie nights in neighbourhood parks. Grab a neighbour and plan an event that will contribute to a sense of neighbourhood pride and identity.
Closed for 2020
Applications to the 2020 Richmond Neighbourhood Celebration Grant are now closed.
