Are you ready for the UEFA Cup?
Heineken is looking to create some aluminum can art for an upcoming event on May 19th. They were told that HSTA is a great place to start looking for some talent…
They’re looking for two idea submissions as soon as possible, to be created in time for the 19th of May for an upcoming Heineken UEFA (world cup soccer) screening party in Toronto. Art must reflect Heineken and/or soccer imagery. Materials will mainly be cans or bottles and will be provided by us. Other materials are acceptable as long as the main component is Heineken cans or bottles.
You will be paid for your work! Interested parties should submit ideas to matt.mcguinness@molsoncoors.com as soon as possible!
If anyone is interested they must be of legal drinking age, 19+.

Good afternoon all!
We’ve just received word about this fantastic opportunity for an Artist in Residence.Great for grads and emerging artists…
Straight from the source:
“Artist in Residence Program
The Burlington Handweavers and Spinners Guild (BHSG), with the encouragement of the Burlington Art Centre (BAC), invites applications to an Artist in Residence opportunity for the fall of 2012.
Our goal with this residency is to share our studio and our collective knowledge with an emerging artist who wants to grow and develop the art form we care so much about. It will enable and assist a recent textile art graduate wishing to incorporate weaving and/or spinning in his/her work. The combination of studio space, equipment, support and mentorship will allow the successful candidate to develop and build a body of work.”
For more information, please go to their website at

Good luck!
Artist of the Week
January 28, 2012 § Leave a comment
Fleming College – Haliburton School of the Arts has so many great and talented individuals walk through these halls that we decided it was time to showcase them.
Starting now, once a week, we will feature our “Artist of the Week”: a real, living breathing artist that, at one time, attended one or more of our programs. Quite often, the artist will have their own website so be sure to follow the links!
If you are a former student (or know one!) and would like to be featured on our blog, let us know! We’d love to hear from you!
