The 2007 Cannon Beach Arts Association Artist Grant has been awarded to Cory Burnett.

Every year the Cannon Beach Arts Association in cooperation with the city of Cannon Beach awards a grant to a local artist, writer or musician. This long standing program is one of the ways that the CBAA seeks to foster a vibrant arts community by supporting emerging and professional artists.

This year’s recipient is Cory Burnett, a full time Cannon Beach resident who owns and operates Crowerks, a graphic design and web development company.

Burnett will be producing a multi-media exhibit entitled (L) EDGE which will be featured at the Cannon Beach Gallery in May, 2008 during the Spring Unveiling.
