This year’s provincial pot of funding dropped to $19.5M from last year’s $48M, and applicants requested a total of $52.5M
The province announced more than $140,000 in funding toward festivals and events in the Greater Sudbury area this week.
Among the disappointed parties is Sudbury’s Up Here urban art and music festival, which has received provincial funding for the past several years and had to scale down this year’s event after receiving no money from the province this year. "Experience Ontario is a highly competitive program with no guarantee of funding,” a provincial spokesperson said in a written statement provided to Sudbury.com.
This year’s recipients weighed in on the funding’s impact in the media release issued through Fedeli’s office.
