The Halifax Regional Municipality is advising residents that applications have opened for the Neighbourhood Placemaking Program.

This annual program supports initiatives encouraging neighbours to connect with one another through a community project. Recipients receive training, guidance, and up to $1,500 in funding for their neighbourhood project. Projects may include street paintings, neighbourhood benches, community film screenings, and more. This work aligns with the municipality’s vision of supporting welcoming and liveable communities.

For more information on the Neighbourhood Placemaking Program, including this year’s application form and eligibility criteria, please visit our website. The deadline for applications is October 31, 2023.
