Each year Artspace provides 50 scholarships to deserving youth to attend the Artspace Summer Arts Program! These students would otherwise be unable to attend the program. Scholarship selections are based on nominations from area art teachers and in order to qualify students must participate in the free/reduced lunch program.
By providing scholarships to deserving students we are breaking down the barrier of cost that may hinder many families from participating in arts education. The Artspace Scholarship Fund ensures that we can continue providing high quality programming to youths regardless of their ability to pay.
This year the Artspace staff personally donated $250 - the full cost to send one child to the Summer Arts Program for a full-day week-long program.
Please make a contribution in any denomination to the Scholarship Fund by visiting our website, every donation counts! Consider how you can inspire creative energy in the community!
