Smooth Sales
for Pianos

| Ee the second year in a row, the
on-campus sale of pianos was a
success. The partnership with Kawai
Music Canada and Howard’s Pianos
is expected to continue for at least
two more years.

“The pianos that Kawai Music
loans to the College through
Howard’s Pianos play a very
important role in our three music
programs,” say John Waters,
Capilano College’s dean of Arts.
“The sale is particularly benefical to
our students. We appreciate Kawai’s
commitment to our music programs
and we are very happy with our
ongoing partnership with Kawai

Music and Howard’s Pianos.” i

This program will enable student
participation in a related program of
study at an Asian institution.

There are two application periods
for the grants. The due dates are
November | and February 1. The
application process will be
administered by Marjorie Croft.
