Friends,
Governor Holcomb knows that we’ve all been impacted by COVID-19, and
potentially nobody’s been harder hit than our tourism industry, the keepers of
our world-renowned Hoosier hospitality.
Many museums had to close their doors, festivals had to refrain from putting
up their tents, and musicians had to stop performing. Most of our arts and
cultural organizations have had to temporarily cease operations.
However, Governor Holcomb and Lt. Governor Suzanne Crouch are working hard to
make sure these institutions can reopen!
Lt. Governor Crouch announced Wednesday that a $10 million grant will help
fund these beloved programs, preserving them and their history within our local
communities. Federal CARES Act money provided through the Indiana Destination
Development Corporation will ensure that events, festivals, fairs, expos, and
gatherings continue to be valuable and vital parts of our lives.
If you or someone you know belong to one of the following categories, you may
be eligible to receive a portion of this grant starting August 10:
* Arts and cultural organizations
* Museums
* Theaters
* Community event organizations
* Festival organizations
* Destination marketing organizations
You can find the application here

Hoosiers, I don’t know about you, but we are ready to stroll through
galleries, eat a funnel cake, and enjoy live music in the park once again!
We’re one day closer to getting there, and these grants will help. So, remember
to wear your mask, wash your hands, and social distance. We can all do our part
to support our tourism industry!
#BackonTrack,
-Your Holcomb Crew
