Eligible restaurants, hotels and creative arts businesses are eligible to apply for $175 million in available grant funding. All applicants will receive a grant as long as they meet eligibility requirements, submit proper documentation and attestations required by the program. The program design for B2B Restaurants, B2B Hotels, and B2B Arts, respectively, are based on legislation which established the Restaurant Employment and Stabilization Grant Program (20 ILCS 605/605-1100), Hotel Jobs Recovery Grant Program (20 ILCS 605/605-1095), and the Illinois Creative Recovery Grant program (30 ILCS 709/40).
