Applications open for event support grants

The Columbus Area Visitors Center has set an April 15 deadline for Event Support grant applications.

Grants are intended to support and develop festivals and events which generate out-of-county visitor spending in Bartholomew County and advance the community brand.

Awards are made for events in 2022 and applications must be submitted before the event date.

First-time applicants must attend a brief orientation via Zoom at 3 p.m. March 8 or make other arrangements.

Event organizers may request an application by calling or emailing the center at 812-378-2622, [email protected].
