Who would you like to see as one of the
winners in the picture for this year, 2018? Nominations for the 10th Annual
Richmond Arts Awards open this week. You have until 5 p.m. Thurs. March 15 to
submit an application.
The Richmond Arts Awards 2018 was developed
in partnership by the City of Richmond with the Richmond Arts Coalition.
Nominate someone or a group you admire: an
artist, volunteer, teacher, organization or individual.
Decide which one of the six categories they
fit into: arts education, artistic innovation, business and the arts, cultural
leadership, volunteerism, or youth arts.
The reason to nominate a group or person you
admire is twofold, to recognize their excellence and hard work but also to have
them act as an example to encourage others in our community to participate in
the arts.
The Richmond ensures there are few barriers
to artistic pursuits, offering enrichment and classes both in and out of
school. The Richmond School Board has long encouraged creative endeavours as
part of our children’s education as do our institutions like the Richmond
Library, the Richmond Museum, the Richmond Art Gallery as well as a host of
museums spread throughout our city such as our national historic sites, the
Steveston Tram and Steveston Museum.
April will see the three finalists in each
category named.
The métiers are varied. All artistic
disciplines are eligible: visual, performing, literary and culinary arts, as
well as craft, environmental arts and new media.
Mayor Malcolm Brodie will host the awards ceremony
Tues. May 15.
