The Rosemarie Liscum Legacy Fund for Ballet Victoria
Ballet Victoria established the Rosemarie Liscum Legacy Fund in June 2021 to honour the President of the BV Board of Directors from 2008 to 2021, Rosemarie Liscum, who passed away in Victoria, BC in April 2021.
Each season, BV awards funds to one or more deserving emerging artist(s) to support their development in dance. The BV Artistic Director selects the recipient(s) each season based on merit, looking for dancers who demonstrate qualities Rosemarie was known for: passion, empathy, hard work, dedication, humour, generosity, humility, and kindness.
