Wyo Office of Tourism sign grant program
Wyoming Office of Tourism Sign Grant Program
NEW! Changes made to the program to benefit those organizations applying for funding.
The Wyoming Office of Tourism receives $400,000 each biennium to fund signage projects along Wyoming's highways. The purpose of the grant program is to nurture Wyoming's tourism industry by creating a more visitor friendly and accessible destination. The program is a biennium program that provides funding in the following sign categories: Interpretive/Wayside Exhibits; Guide/Service/Attraction; and Free Form signs. Any non-profit entity, municipality, tribal government, state and federal agency are eligible to apply for funding.
Changes to the program include:
- 50% cash match for Interpretive/Wayside exhibits and Free Form signs has been reduced to a 20% cash or in-kind match on behalf of the applicant.
- Guide/Service/Attraction signs will be funded in full if approved.
- Installation costs can now be included in the project budget and will be funded up to 50%.
Application Deadline: May 18, 2012.
Organizations applying in the Interpretive/Wayside Exhibit category are also strongly encouraged to attend WOT's Interpretive Sign Workshops.
