Foundation offers grants to young artists
The Bouddi Foundation for the Arts has announced its 2012 program of grants to young aspiring artists on the Central Coast.
The Foundation is offering grants of up to $5000 to help young artists develop their talents.
"We are looking for artists from 15 to 25 who are engaged in music, the performing arts, literature or the visual arts," said Foundation chairman Mr John Bell.
"I know how important it is for artists to get encouragement and support at a young age," said Mr Bell, who is an actor, director and founder of the Bell Shakespeare Company.
"The Bouddi Foundation for the Arts has been established to do this.
"We are excited at the opportunity we have to help these young people and build on the rich culture of our community," he said.
The Bouddi Foundation for the Arts was established by the Bouddi Society, a non-profit organisation located on the Bouddi Peninsula.
