Annual art event to fund student bursaries<br />
The Shutterbug Gallery in Huntsville,<br />
in partnership with the Huntsville<br />
Festival of the Arts, is inviting applications<br />
for its first student arts bursary.<br />
Last July the gallery and festival of the<br />
arts launched the 1st Annual en Plein Air<br />
Painting & Auction. Proceeds from the<br />
event were directed to a student art<br />
bursary for students pursuing a fine arts<br />
education in the visual arts.<br />
A total of $3,000 was raised by<br />
Muskoka artists to provide three bursaries<br />
of $1,000 each for students in<br />
Huntsville, Bracebridge and Gravenhurst.<br />
The amount of the bursary will<br />
fluctuate from year to year based on<br />
monies raised in a given year.<br />
In honour of the contribution of the<br />
Muskoka artists in funding the award,<br />
one student from each of the three towns<br />
will be awarded a bursary.<br />
To qualify for a bursary, students must<br />
be enrolled in a secondary school in<br />
Muskoka, be pursuing a post-secondary<br />
education in the visual arts and be in<br />
their graduating year or have graduated<br />
within the past year but are not already<br />
attending college, university or another<br />
form of post-secondary education.<br />
The bursaries will be presented at local<br />
high school graduation ceremonies at the<br />
end of the 2010 school year.<br />
Applications must include a portfolio,<br />
letter of intent, a copy of the student’s letter<br />
of acceptance from a college or university<br />
or a copy of the application and<br />
contact information in Muskoka. Applications<br />
can be submitted from May 15 to<br />
June 5, 2010 at 4 p.m. The portfolio is<br />
the student’s opportunity to present a<br />
collection of 10 original pieces, or a documentation<br />
of the work in the form of<br />
photographs. Portfolios are to be mailed,<br />
couriered or dropped off at the Shutterbug<br />
Gallery and will be returned two<br />
weeks following the deadline. Portfolios<br />
that are sent by mail or courier must also<br />
