Main Street Funding to Continue
The Government of Saskatchewan has announced that it has established Main Street Saskatchewan as an on-going program. "Our historic downtowns and commercial districts are centres of pride in our province," said Mark Docherty, Minister of Parks, Culture and Sport. "Through its new, on-going program, Main Street Saskatchewan will work with communities to promote, conserve and capitalize on the things that make these areas unique. By helping create jobs, businesses, and areas for cultural experience, this new program will improve our quality of life and contribute to the remarkable growth we're experiencing across the province." Those looking at the Main Street program may also be interested in applying for SaskCulture's Municipal Cultural Engagement and Planning (MCEP) grant.
