WEYBURN — To celebrate the 60th anniversary of the Weyburn Arts Council, the WAC has partnered with Collabartive Studios to give back to the community with the Re-Gifted Community Arts Education Fund.

In a statement from the WAC in their Facebook post on the bursary announcement, which was made at the Gifted summer art market on Saturday, they said, “Art is important in our community, so helping our residents access it is a priority for the Weyburn Arts Council.”

The Arts Council is taking the proceeds from Saturday’s Gifted summer art market, plus the proceeds from the winter market, to create the fund to assist adults to take art classes. Collabartive Studios is adding in the donations made from their tea bar.

Anyone who is 18 or older from the Weyburn or surrounding area can apply for the bursary.

Any one session art class is eligible, and Re-Gifted will cover up to $50, or the cost of the class if it’s under $50.

To apply, send the Weyburn Arts Council an email with your name, name of the class you wish to take, the venue offering the class and the cost of the class.

Once a person has been approved, they are asked to send confirmation of enrolment in the class, and the funds will then be released.

To apply, send the email to [email protected].
