The sports bar at Boston Pizza is packed and the parking lot is chock-a-block. It’s a sunny Tuesday evening in April, and the 100 Airdrie Men Who Give a Damn are gathered for their quarterly meeting of drinking and do-gooding.

Applications for the City of Airdrie’s Community Event Grant are open from now until Aug. 31.  The grant provides seed funding towards new or up-and-coming events within three years of organization to assist with startup costs.

There’s an old proverb that says, “As iron sharpens iron, so one person sharpens another.” This is the premise Airdrie’s Arts & Culture Council Assessment Committee (ACAC) is building on as it creates a new, dedicated pathway to nurturing arts and culture.
