Are you looking to further your skills as an artist? Have you been keen to follow your dream but didn’t have the funds to take the chance? Why not apply for the 2022 Storylines Art Bursary?
The Story Lines Art Bursary is open to residents of the Ferny Grove Electorate and is sponsored by Mark Furner MP, the Member for Ferny Grove.
The Bursary’s intent is to fund all, or part of costs associated with the successful applicant’s pursuit of studies or experiences to further their art and add value to the Ferny Grove community’s creative potential.
