ABOUT The Pat Cummings Performing Arts Award:

This award is given to a performer or performance group in the category of either dance, theatre, song, music and visual arts. Each student, in their discipline, will have the opportunity to submit an application (small group, large group or soloist) to be able to receive the award.

​

The applicant’s performance will be judged on Creativity, Passion, Presentation, and Performance. The candidate(s) will also give a short verbal bio in their video submission to illustrate why their art is special to them.

This is not an award for the best actor, musician, dancer, artist or singer; it is to find the person or persons who have joy and passion in their chosen art.

​

The winning recipient(s) will perform at our Variety show, receive their award on stage from Pat Cummings’ daughter Alison Cowan, and have their video submission shown on screen to the audience. FAVAS is proud and excited to add this component to our Variety Show, and will add to the winning recipient a monetary bursary award.
