City offering creative industry workforce grants
The Philadelphia Office of Arts, Culture and the Creative Economy, in partnership with the Department of Commerce, has announced a new grant program to support job creation in Philadelphia’s creative sector.
Grants will be available to nonprofit and for profit creative businesses for facility projects linked to job creation such as renovated office space, mixed-use facilities, artist workspace and creative industry incubators.
The total funding allocated for the program is $500,000, one-time funding provided through the federal stimulus program.
The City expects to make approximately 10 grants in the range of $20,000 -$100,000. The grants will support the development of facility projects linked to job creation, including permanent jobs, as well as temporary construction, installation, architectural and engineering jobs.
