The Town of Arnprior is getting close to 40 thousand dollars through the “My Main Street Community Activator Placemaking Program”
Acting Marketing and Economic Development Officer for the Town, Erin Coyle, tells us about the pedigree of the funding.
Coyle says the money is intended to help communities get back on their feet after COVID and all of the associated lockdowns.
The $38,350 will be put toward hosting a multi-cultural night market with food vendors and artisans from various ethnicities allowing attendees to become more acquainted with new neighbours and the diverse cultural backgrounds they come from.
The night market will take place Saturday, August 27th, and an agenda of activities is being formulated.
