John Nicholson Foundation Bursary award 2021
Rushen & Western Mann Rotary are pleased to announce the John Nicholson Bursary Award for Visual Arts for 2021 has been awarded to Beth Louella
The object of the Foundation as specified by the late John Hobson Nicholson is to “advance visual arts in the Isle of Man……by way of grants, awards bursaries or prizes “.
Art being viewed and bought online has increased significantly since the first Covid-19 lockdown and is becoming more of a norm in the art buying world. Online art sales are largely made up of lower priced artworks
Beth is also a member of the Creative Network and has been making connections with Isle of Man creatives. The global growth of people engaging with art online and increasing online art sales are especially exciting opportunities for Isle of Man artists with the geographical restrictions of island living and a limited physical audience.
