Our increasingly diversified economy now demands this dynamic and creative workforce and our students are rising to fill the need, “says Dr. Daniel Doz, President + CEO, Alberta College of Art + Design. “Students at ACAD will benefit immensely from a bursary that is created through Dinner by Design.
