GLENFIDDICH IN CANADA CELEBRATES 15 YEARS OF SUPPORTING CANADIAN ARTISTS
The Glenfiddich Artists in Residence Program celebrates its 15th anniversary year in Canada with a special virtual celebration
A special Glenfiddich nosing and tasting of two, one-of-a-kind (and also some widely available) Glenfiddich variants will be led by Global Brand Ambassador, Straun Grant Ralph to round out the celebratory evening.
For fifteen years, the Glenfiddich Artists in Residence program in Canada has provided a winning Canadian artist the opportunity to participate in a Summer residency at the Glenfiddich Distillery in Dufftown, Scotland. Joining other artists from around the globe, the winning artist creates a unique piece of art, drawing inspiration from the distillery surroundings of the world’s most awarded single malt whisky, Glenfiddich. All travel expenses, art supplies and room and board are included, valuing the artist prize at approximately $20,000.
