Circle Craft’s Annual Student Scholarships Exhibition

This exhibition features the works of Circle Craft’s 2009 student scholarship recipients. Featured will be: Hamza Vora & Raneen Nosh, Emily Carr University of Art & Design, Ceramics Program; Morija Reeb, Capilano University, Textile Arts Program; Patrick McIvor, Kootenay School of the Arts, Metal Program; and, Angie Arsenault, Vancouver Community College, Jewellery Program.
In 2003, Circle Craft Co-Operative initiated an external scholarship award program to support new and upcoming craftspeople. This program is part of Circle Craft’s commitment to community outreach programming, working in partnership with four BC institutions; Emily Carr University of Art and Design, Ceramics; Capilano University, Textile Arts Program; Vancouver Community College, Jewellery Program; and, the Kootenay School of the Arts, Metal Program.
Graduating students from these programs are invited to complete an application to be considered for the award. A selection committee from each department works in co-operation with Circle Craft to select each year’s recipients. Selection is based on outstanding achievement and an intent to pursue their art form professionally or through furthering their studies. For more information visit www.circlecraft.net.
