Nominations for BC Achievement Foundation’s Sam Carter Award Applied Art + Design are now being accepted, and will remain open until June 30.

Now in its 21st year, the Sam Carter Award Applied Art + Design honours excellence and inspires achievement in applied art and design throughout the province. The program celebrates British Columbians whose work enhances day-to-day life for individuals and contributes to the cultural and economic fabric of the province.

“I’ve always been making, ever since I was a child,” says Bridget Catchpole, 2023 recipient of the Sam Carter Award. “That’s what got me through so many things in life…was making.”

A combined exhibition showcasing the 2024 recipients for both the Polygon Award First Nations Art and the Applied Art + Design Award will be held from November 18 to 24 at the Roundhouse Community Arts & Recreation Centre.

Nominate artists now at BC Achievement Foundation, and learn more about the nonprofit organization by visiting its website and YouTube channel.
