*The Better Together Grant supports the community by catalyzing events and projects that activate public spaces, increase foot traffic, and highlight the district's unique identity. It fosters an engaging environment by supporting arts and cultural events, public installations, and projects that drive co-creation, economic growth, and a sense of place.

Stay tuned for updates on the next grant cycle launching in January 2025.
