Gerry Potter Memorial Bursary Fund

Bursary fund for students pursuing a career in the arts.

Gerry Potter was a connoisseur of the Arts and during his teaching career he tried to pass on this love to all the children he taught.  He was dedicated to having children perform and felt the Arts are central to a student’s experiences and are an essential part of every child’s education.  He believed that the arts bring us pleasure and teach us to enjoy both learning and living.

This bursary will give young people the opportunity to pursue their love of the arts and positively influence the people around them with great enthusiasm and energy as Gerry did.

Your donation to this fund will enable future artist to pursue their educational goals and further their careers.
