Gillian Lowndes Award Louise
Baril Memorial Music Award Anne
and Philip Klein Visual Arts AwardThe decision to distribute an award is based on the amount of money the principle funding generates during the year. With interest rates very low, sometimes these funds do not generate enough interest to merit an award each year. Awards are not made if there is insufficient interest earned or if there is no qualified applicant. The Arts Council is enthusiastic about their awards program and is actively seeking more financial help so that awards can be made larger or new awards may be created. If you would like to create a new memorial award or sponsor an award as a corporation, the Sunshine Coast Arts Council would like to hear from you. Please contact the council at sc_artscouncil@dccnet.com or 604.886.5412. Awards give artists the impetus to strive harder and to give back to our community. They are a win-win for everyone! |
