The bursaries will provide assistance to young adults (12-20) who have exhibited a passionate interest and dedication to voice, dance and/or musical theatre and who, because of financial need, require multi-year funding support for training in these arts. The bursaries embrace the principles of diversity, and equality as enshrined in the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms.
One bursary will be awarded for a female (cis/trans) and one for a male (cis/trans). Each of the two bursaries will be for two years, with funding being provided annually. The estimated annual bursary for 2023 and 2024 will be $3,500 for each bursary each year.
Funding will be managed by the Conservatory and can be used for training in class work or private coaching, as well as essential equipment. Some external training may be considered.
The recipients will be determined before or on June 1, 2023. The successful recipients will be publicly announced at the June convocation for the Conservatory. Applications for thebursaries will occur every two years thereafter (e.g, 2025, 2027, 2029).
