In 2023 we had the tremendous pleasure of introducing the Rosy Ind Bursary Award for Emerging Printmakers in memory of our valued member, Rosy Ind.
The aims of the Bursary Award are to develop the skills and expertise of emerging printmaker; to provide creative opportunities for young people from diverse backgrounds; and to grow and develop the membership of Swansea Print Workshop to ensure its longevity as an organisation.
The inaugural bursaries were awarded to two recipients: Wanesa Kazmierowska and Isabel Porch.
Each emerging printmaker was supported in a tailor-made programme including 1-to-1 mentoring, workshops and other activities. In addition, they received full annual membership, open access sessions at the studio and a materials budget.
