We are very pleased to announce that we have just won the Joseph S. Stauffer Prize for 2008.   Each year, up to three Canadian artists who have received a Canada Council Grant in the fields of literature, visual arts or music, are awarded Joseph S. Stauffer Prizes.  This prize honours the memory of the benefactor whose bequest to the Canada Council enables it to “encourage young Canadians of outstanding promise or potential”.
