A total of $1500 is available for one or more bursaries, to be awarded at the discretion of the Beneath the Arch Education Committee. These bursaries are available to enable young performing artists to enhance their experiences and skills in a performing arts field. We define “performing arts” as any creative, artistic endeavor that is active and viewed by an audience (such as dance, voice, music, theatre).
To be eligible, you must be a resident of Turner Valley, Black Diamond, Millarville, Longview or the surrounding areas and currently a student in any Grade from 4 to 12 enrolled in any Alberta school. Home school students are also welcome to apply.
To apply you can download the application form here. Further details are on the form.
You can use the bursary toward any of the following:
- lessons
- admission or registrations costs (tuition)
- event or competition fees
- rental fees (for instruments, studio space, etc)
- materials, books, costumes, learning aids
We may ask bursary winners for proof that you used the bursary for one of these activities or costs.

We will announce the bursary winners before June 30th.
We thank all applicants for your interest. We will only notify the winners. No bursaries will be awarded if the committee determines that none of the applications meet minimum standards.
