Manitoba's 2023 Budget Provides for $50 Million To Support Arts, Culture, And Sports Projects
As part of Budget 2023, Historic Help for Manitobans, more than 400 community arts, culture and sports projects will receive $50 million in funding from the Manitoba government to immediately begin making improvements to build stronger communities across the province.
On Monday, March 27, at 9 a.m. Obby Khan, the Minister of Sport, Culture and Heritage, held a Zoom conference call with ethnic media in Manitoba, so that they could ask questions directly to the Minister about this budget and how their communities will benefit from it.
Obby Khan said, “Arts, culture and amateur sport organizations are at the heart of our communities and play a significant role in the health, wellness, social cohesion and social inclusion of Manitobans.”
Khan noted 23 projects worth $37.8 million were funded through a large capital grant program including the South Winnipeg YMCA-YWCA which received nearly $1.6 million to enhance accessibility and community outreach. The Minister noted that funding these kinds of projects maintains the quality of current facilities and improves access to high-quality, modern facilities in local communities to foster excellence and preserve, share and celebrate heritage and culture.
Two allocations for the Community Celebrations program have already invested $583,000 to support 126 community events across the province including winter and seasonal celebrations, feasts, fairs and festivals, and cultural concerts and performances, added Khan.
