The Centre for Emerging Artists & Designers is excited to announce that Emma Aurelia, a recent graduate of OCAD University’s Material Art and Design program, is the recipient of the first AKIN Collective Career Launcher! Emma will receive a period of free studio space at AKIN’s inspiring shared workspaces in 2016–2017, valued at $2000, as well as a $500 cash award.

The AKIN Collective Career Launcher is an amazing opportunity for graduating Material Art and Design students to become part of a larger creative community and gain access to the excellent multidisciplinary facilities that AKIN Collective has to offer. Applications were reviewed by AKIN's Directors, faculty members, and staff from the Centre for Emerging Artists & Designers.

Congratulations Emma! Check out some of Emma's work below, or visit her website www.emmaurelia.com
