The B.C. Arts Council is seeking applicants for scholarships but aspiring artists must apply by the end of the month.
"The B.C. Arts Council Scholarship Program can provide significant funding for arts students in Delta," says Delta South MLA Vicki Huntington. "I encourage any young or
new artists who are currently enrolled or planning to attend a post-secondary arts program to apply."
