The Turret is one of 11 large projects nominated for funding in the District 7 Participatory Budgeting Vote.
Neither of the recently announced Turret project grants cover ongoing operating costs such as insurance and utilities, so with 10K, Turret Arts Space can “keep the lights on” during 2023 while they undertake our first phase of renovation and continue project planning. The Turret is 100% volunteer run and relies exclusively on fundraising for operating costs!
Community members show up and interact with community organizations pitching their $5,000 to $10,000 projects and then get to vote for 6 of their favourites. At the end of the night, the winner will be announced!
Who: Anyone who lives in District 7 Halifax Downtown South and is able to make their own choice is entitled to vote: children, permanent residents, refugees, and international students are welcome! In person voting only. If you don’t live in District 7: spread the word to Turret supporters who do! Like, share, tag, text, call, message—let’s get the vote out to support the Turret Arts Space!
Where: Lindsay Children's Room, Halifax Central Library
8:30 to 11 p.m.
