PCANZ is thrilled to award the Gary Tricker Summer School 2027 Scholarship to Vicki Jones, Hamilton.
The award is valued at $900 and includes attendance at the 2027 Summer School and membership of PCANZ for 2027. Vicki has chosen to attend Deborah Crowe’s - Pressing Forward: Create, Connect, Contribute - 4 day workshop.
MORE GREAT NEWS !!!!!
PCANZ are thrilled to announce that as Summer School was so well subscribed this year, we have been able to support an additional partial scholarship, which goes to Olivia Baker, Christchurch. This scholarship will cover the cost of Olivia’s fees for her selected workshop, which is also Deborah Crowe’s Pressing Forward workshop.
The applications this year were of a very high standard and were all very worthy, making the panel's decision a tough job.

About the Gary Tricker Summer School Scholarship fund:
PCANZ is excited a new fund was been created in 2023 to support the Summer School Scholarship, now named the Gary Tricker Summer School Scholarship.
The Gary Tricker Summer School Scholarship fund has been created thanks to the Gary Tricker deceased estate through the sale of his studio items.
PCANZ is hugely grateful to the family and the estate, and to those who worked tirelessly towards setting up of the fund. It was a massive undertaking by the PCANZ team - Lynne and Alan Wilburn, Rosalie and Jack Thompson, Kathy Boyle and Heather Partel. Huge thanks to all who made this possible.
Gary Tricker was an Honorary member of PCANZ. You can find out more about him in the Stuff obituary here and p38 in PROOF, the PCANZ 2023 publication.
