As part of the Illuminate PVD initiative to energize Providence’s streets and public spaces through creative lighting, we’re excited to announce a new funding opportunity for businesses and organizations with storefronts in the city.
Eligible applicants can receive up to $1,500 to support exterior lighting improvements, including materials and/or labor costs. Qualifying projects may include architectural or façade lighting, gobo projections, sidewalk illumination, illuminated signage, and window displays.
Selected projects must be completed within 90 days of receiving funding.
