In response to Black Lives Matter and anti-racist protests in Canada, the U.S., and beyond, Nova Scotia’s Conundrum Press is launching an annual $1,000 bursary to a Black or Indigenous person. The money will support the creation and production of a mini-comic. Conundrum will also help with distribution of the work.

The recipient, who must be living in Canada, should be considered a developing or emerging creator (all ages and genders welcome).
