Community Events
A Community Event is considered a smaller local event with the primary purpose of celebrating and connecting the local community.
These events are all about bringing people together — whether it's for fundraising, fun and entertainment, social connection, or to celebrate civic or ceremonial occasions.
These events are generally run by volunteers.
A community event can be:
- a localised celebration
- an event open to all NGSC residents
Funding available
A community event can receive up to $1500 in funding
