Applications may be picked up at the Augusta CVB offices in Enterprise Mill, located at 1450 Greene Street, Suite 110 in downtown Augusta, or downloaded from the Augusta CVB website at VisitAugusta.com/Corporate/Tourism-Grant.

The Augusta CVB administers the Tourism Grant each year, in partnership with the city of Augusta. The purpose of this grant program is to provide funds for marketing and other qualified expenses directed towards increasing the number of overnight visitors to Augusta from outside the area. Any non-profit, governmental or quasi-governmental organization, that wishes to promote its event and/or product to visitors from outside the area, is eligible to apply for the grant.

Tourism Grant applications must be submitted no later than 4:00 p.m. on Friday, October 23, 2015. For more information please contact Jay Markwalter at [email protected] or 706.823.6605.
