Empty Shops and Promotion Initiative (round 2)
"An ingenious way of bringing art to the people" Alan Yentob
Bristol City Council has received funding from the Department of
Communities and Local Government to encourage the temporary use of empty
shops during the recession and there are grants of up to £2000 for
projects in shops in targeted neighbourhood retail areas of the city.
The council is now inviting organisations (arts-based organisations,
community groups or registered charities) to bid for funding to support
projects, which bring empty shops into 'temporary' use or promote the
Place Management areas. The Place Management areas are Ashley
Road/Grosvenor Road, Stokes Croft, Gainsborough Square (Lockleaze),
Avonmouth, Ridingleaze, Shirehampton and Bedminster.
Further guidance, application form and toolkit are attached; they will
shortly be available on the Internet at
www.bristol.gov.uk/placemanagement.
The deadline for applications is 4pm on 26 March 2010.
