2022 Scholarship recipients and this year’s DAR events!
By Nicole Côté
The 2022 D’Arts et de rêves scholarship winners
In 2021, D’Arts et de rêves announced the establishment of an annual scholarship competition for each of the three disciplines supported by our organization. Each scholarship includes:
- a three-week stay free of charge at our Sutton DAR Studios;
- a $1500 bursary.
These scholarships are awarded each year to the best creative projects selected by our jury and it is with great pleasure that we announce the names of this year’s three lucky winners.
Recipients of the 2022 scholarships
Nathan Biggs-Penton, circus arts
Sophie Perry, visual arts
Laurence Leduc-Primeau, literary arts
You will have the chance to meet and talk with these three artists at a public event. Keep an eye on our communications to find out the dates.
Congratulations to our three winning artists for 2022!
