Gear/EFV, The Oyster Farm, and Lemon Tree Gallery win Grant
The Virginia Tourism Corporation (VTC) Marketing Leverage Program is designed to stimulate new tourism marketing programs through the creation of tourism partnerships and to extend the “Virginia is for Lovers” campaign. The objective of this program is to leverage limited marketing dollars, resulting in increased visitor spending, revenue, and jobs. More than $772,000 in matching grant funds will be awarded to 62 tourism initiatives as part of the Virginia Tourism Corporation’s (VTC) Marketing Leverage Program (MLP). Local entities Gear/EFV, The Oyster Farm, and Lemon Tree Gallery are one of several winners of this year’s grant.
Governor Terry McAuliffe announced the awards on Tuesday.
“Today, we take another critical step in supporting one of Virginia’s largest private sector industries and the individual communities across the Commonwealth that foster it,” said McAuliffe. “These Marketing Leverage Program grants provide a vital opportunity for destinations and businesses across the Commonwealth, helping to create jobs, promote economic development, and increase visitor spending,” McAuliffe said.
Title of the marketing initiative submitted by the group is “Art Soaked Weekends: Cape Charles”.
The lead partner in the initiative is GEAR (Global Exchange Arts Roundtable, Inc) a non-profit founded in 2015 by Renata Sheppard as a vehicle for Experimental Film Virginia. The partners are two local businesses: Lemon Tree Gallery and Studio, which already has an established partnership with GEAR and The Oyster Farm Seafood Eatery, which already has an established summer music and entertainment track record as well as being a restaurant and event center.
Renata Sheppard told the Mirror, “We are hoping to lead by example with the Art Soaked Weekend project and the doors are open for other businesses, restaurants, and organizations to join our Art Soaked Weekend initiative. Please reach out to us so we can talk about making this a really effective marketing and tourism brand for our town.” [Read more…]
