Our Park Information Session

This FREE online information session will provide more detailed information about “Our Park: Community Art Project Grant" offered in partnership with City of Markham Public Art Program and York Region Arts Council.

“Our Park” grant aims to provide funding to Markham-based professional artists, arts organizations, artist collectives, and non-profit organizations to create and present free arts programming in selected parks located in Markham. For the purposes of this program, “arts programming” may include the presentation of dance, literary arts, music, theatre, visual and media arts, community-engaged arts, and other fields of artistic practice.
