Since 1975, the Morden Festival of the Arts has been a local highlight for young people within our community. Students have developed their skills in disciplines including dance, piano, strings, speech, voice, drama, band, and vocal choral. The Festival offers a venue for student performances and adjudication, enabling performers to grow in their abilities and self confidence.
This scholarship was established by the Festival of the Arts in 2007 to encourage past and present participants to pursue post secondary education. It is awarded to students who have participated in the Morden Festival of the Arts, have excelled in their discipline, and are pursuing post secondary education. Recipients include:
