“Competing for this scholarship is one of the first times I've shown anyone, outside of my family, my work. I was scared to put it on display for other people to see and critique. The jury giving me great feedback on my art helped me believe in myself...and by winning this scholarship, it showed me I really DO have a talent and I'm unique to others!"

“I see my future & my journey as being a wild ride that's going to be worth every second! I have found for myself that I am most dedicated to change. And for me: change is the goal, and art is the WAY!
Art is guiding in everything I do.”
Madalyn Rockwell • 2022 Winner Writer/Author

“I always knew I was going to be an artist from a very young age. I felt like I was the most free to be myself within the space of visual art. From the very beginning I had to think about what would set me apart & what would really put me as a horse in the running to win this scholarship. I always feel like if I keep following my heart thru art, I'm gonna end up somewhere great!”
Emma Southard • 2019 Winner Visual Art
