The program launch will provide local cultural organizations and businesses with more information on how they can get involved with the program.

Arts and culture organizations in Mississauga will receive free sponsorship training and will be invited to apply for a total of $60,000 in matching incentive grants.
Combined with sponsorships of equal or greater value from local businesses, this could result in an investment of at least $120,000 for Mississauga’s creative economy.
