School of Decorative and Applied Arts

(extracted from Management Committee's Report in 1925 Annual Report)

     The outstanding forward educational movement of the year has been the opening on October 1st, of the School of Decorative and Applied Art. This school will fill a long felt need in training not more artisans, but artists to convert British Columbia's wealth of raw material into the greater wealth of artistic finished products. We have been fortunate in securing such men as Captain G. Thornton Sharp, A.R.I.B.A., as Director, and Mr. C.H. Scott, Dip. G.S.A., as Head Master. Under such capable leadership, with financial assistance from the provincial government and the fullest co-operation of the B.C. Art League, the success of the school is assured.
