The YVR Art Foundation Masterpiece Study Program has been renamed the Bill McLennan Masterpiece Study Program in memory of longtime YVRAF board member Bill McLennan.
Bill McLennan Masterpiece Study Program Microgrants
Microgrants are $500 grants for BC and Yukon First Nations artists who wish to further their art practice through research/study of BC and Yukon Indigenous art and artifacts. Grants are for virtual collections visits at our museum partners offering virtual visits, or for in-person attendance if travel to the museum is not required.
Microgrants are intended to cover minor costs associated with collections visits, including for example time, meals and/or materials associated with the visits.
Applications will be accepted on an ongoing basis and up to ten microgrants will be awarded in 2021.
