Scholarship Overview:

This scholarship is available to students immersed in any form of visual and/or performing arts. To be eligible, applicants are required to submit an essay expressing their perspectives on creativity and courage. The wisdom of French artist Henri Matisse echoes through the application process as he once stated, “another word for creativity is courage.” While artists may receive admiration, they are also susceptible to criticism and rejection.

The act of unveiling art to the world demands the conquering of fear and self-doubt. Even the most accomplished artists grapple with existential questions like “am I good enough?” or “will people appreciate my work?” If you are a student with a creative spirit who has faced these challenges, we encourage you to seize this opportunity and apply for the scholarship. Refer to the “Application Information” section below for specific details on the essay prompt. We eagerly anticipate reading your application!
