There are many people, events, and organizations that contribute to the quality of place that we experience across the Hoosier State. The goal of this program is to assist in the preservation of these entities that enhance the quality of life in Indiana. The Indiana Destination Development Corporation (IDDC) will provide operating support to local entities, events and arts and cultural organizations whose normal business has been interrupted due to COVID-19. Via an application process, funding will be available to make grants to help preserve and sustain the events, arts and cultural organizations that contribute to the character and health of a community.
The application submittal process begins Friday, August 14, 2020. Applications must be submitted no later than 4:00 pm EST on September 8, 2020.
