Supporting Local Businesses: The Bricks & Clicks Grant Program
Vancouver’s Downtown Association (VDA) is committed to fostering a thriving downtown community by supporting local businesses. Through the Bricks & Clicks Grant Program, we provide resources that help downtown merchants and property owners invest in facade improvements and e-commerce initiatives—essential tools for business retention and beautification.
Congratulations to Our 2025 Grant Recipients!
We are proud to recognize three outstanding businesses that have received Bricks & Clicks grants this year:
- Center Stage Clothiers – Enhancing their business operations with a new point-of-sale system and fresh signage.
- Magenta Theater – Investing in a brand-new neon sign and a digital window display to promote upcoming performances.
- Six Shooter – Improving street visibility and safety with upgraded exterior lighting along Main Street.
These investments come at a crucial time as businesses navigate Main Street reconstruction. By helping our local businesses strengthen their presence, we’re ensuring that Downtown Vancouver remains vibrant and welcoming.
About the Bricks & Clicks Grant Program
Designed to support businesses directly impacted by construction, this program prioritizes merchants and property owners along Main Street from 5th Street to 15th Street. The goal is to empower businesses with the tools they need to adapt, grow, and enhance their customer experience.
While applications for 2025 are now closed, we encourage business owners to stay engaged with VDA for future opportunities.
Thank You for Supporting Local!
We are thrilled to see these businesses flourish and invite the community to continue supporting local establishments. Shopping local not only strengthens our economy but also helps preserve the unique character of Downtown Vancouver.
