The Arts Council of New Westminster is looking for help to support the next generation of artists.
The arts council is welcoming donations to its Hilda Cliffe Scholarship Program, which supports students furthering their studies in the arts.
The fund helps cover two awards each year: one, through a partnership with the Douglas College Foundation, to a college student in the performing arts; the other to a New Westminster Secondary School student to further their training or career in the arts.
“Finances should never prevent a student from attending an art program or pursuing a career in the arts,” said a write-up from the arts council. “Right now, you can make sure that students in our community succeed.”
You can donate online through www.artscouncilnewwest.org/donate - use the pull-down menu to specify where you want your donation to go. Donations of any size are welcome.
