Post Content: Open Call: Birks Instagram Feature for Next-Generation Canadian Artists Ages 18–29. ArtLaunch is inviting submissions from next-generation Canadian artists for a new series of Instagram artwork features in collaboration with Birks. Six selected artists will each have one artwork featured on Birks' Instagram channel between January and June 2027, sharing their work and creative perspectives with a national audience. Each selected artist will receive a $100 CAD honorarium. The series celebrates Canadian creativity through artwork inspired by Canada's landscapes, beauty, culture, and spirit. Artists are encouraged to interpret this theme in their own way, drawing on personal experiences, perspectives, and connections to Canada. Existing artwork is encouraged, and there is no fee to apply.
