Because Tuesday was Valentines Day, a traditional day of expressing love and appreciation, we decided it Playhouse gets grant GRAND BEND - Huron Coun- try Playhouse today announced the approval by the Ontario Arts Council of a grant in the amount of $43,000. The Province of Ontario, through the Ontario Arts Council, awards grants annually to deserving arts organizations, who met their criteria; and although these grants cannot be considered as a recurring annual commitment, the Play- house in Grand Bend has been able to secure increased funding each year, since 1974 from the Ontario Arts Council. The money is used towards the operating of the productions, and is not allocated to capital works. The Playhouse has also applied to the Canada Council for further operating funds, and to date has re- ceived no commitment, but look forward to a positive response to their request.
