    Submissions are now being accepted for one of Newfoundland and Labrador’s most prestigious arts and cultural recognition initiatives – the annual Arts and Letters Award Program. The program provides an opportunity to submit works for adjudication and recognizes excellence through the awarding of monetary prizes and the exhibition of entries, where appropriate and feasible. Original creative work in literature, music, visual art, and media arts are eligible.

    In addition,  this year’s Arts and Letters Awards Program includes a one-time, multidisciplinary Confederation 75 category. As the Province commemorates the 75th anniversary of Confederation, artists are invited to create and submit works that reflect the impact of Confederation and/or our relationship with Canada. The deadline to submit is November 20th.  Applications can be found at gov.nl.ca
