The David Evans Scholarship of Art + Design is an initiative led by the New Art Foundation of Vancouver for artists aged 25 and under in the Greater Vancouver area.
As part of the Young Talent Program, this initiative celebrates creativity, diversity, and the boundless potential of young artists and creatives who aspire to excel in the arts and design industries.
Winners will receive:
Scholarship: Two selected winners will receive a cash prize of $1,000 each. Use this support to invest in supplies, education, or any artistic endeavour of your choice.
Mentorship: Top prize winners will enjoy a year-long mentorship guided by industry professionals in their chosen field. Whether it’s visual effects, fine arts, gaming, or another creative domain, our mentors will inspire and elevate your artistry.
Scholarship Artwork: Winners of the award propose to create an artwork during their Scholarship year that is representative of the skills developed through the proposed mentorship or educational opportunity. Emerging Artist Scholarship award recipients then have the option to display their final artwork at True Colour Art Gallery, and the potential opportunity to showcase their work with NAFVAN’s other community partners.
Runner up Benefits:
Runners-up receive art class credits to refine their skills and professional development opportunities with our esteemed partners across the Lower Mainland. These experiences expand horizons and enrich your artistic journey.
The deadline for applications is January 19, 2024
