NBCCD Photography and Videography Students win 8 of 20 ArtsNB Scholarships this year

Posted on 2025-06-03 by Aidan Keenan Posted in News

This year, eight students from the New Brunswick College of Craft and Design (NBCCD) Photography and Videography Studio won ArtsNB Scholarships, each valued at $2,500. This year’s cohort took home almost half of the twenty scholarships given out and doubled the number of winners from 2024—when four photo-video students won—and more than doubled 2023’s cohort—when three students won. Students from across New Brunswick are eligible to apply for the scholarships as long as they are pursuing some form of study or training in their given art form. ArtsNB states on their website that the scholarship is, “designed to recognize and encourage New Brunswick students who have demonstrated exceptional artistic talent and potential, and who are pursuing a career in the arts.” Karen Ruet, an Instructor in NBCCD’s Photo-Video Studio, explained that applying for the ArtsNB Scholarship is now integrated into Photo-Video students’ coursework, because the application process prepares students to write grants and proposals as a professional artist. The scholarships offer exposure for young artists and help alleviate economic barriers that can negatively impact students’ ability to study. Both Jesse Curtis and Emily MacDonald won ArtsNB Scholarships this year, yet described how they still need to work while studying to make ends meet.
