The Studio Arts Workshop Support (SAWS) initiative was established in May 2015 by the Studio Committee at Queen's University Faculty of Education. SAWS is currently overseen by the Arts Infusion Committee.
Teacher candidates and graduate students at Queen's Faculty of Education are invited to apply for this support to offset the cost of registering in an arts workshop. Applications may be submitted to Dr. Benjamin Bolden at ben.bolden@queensu.ca. Please note that we are only able to support a limited number of applications each year. Successful applications will be notified within 10 days of the application deadline.
Successful applications will be reimbursed after the workshop, upon submission of a receipt.

- The student must attend the workshop while they are registered students at the Faculty of Education.
