Individual Scholarship
Amount: $500

In either case, the intention of this scholarship is to allow the individual to gain greater proficiency in watercolor.

Art Educator Scholarship
Amount: $500
This scholarship is for instructors who are using watercolor in their classes or who plan to do so in the near future. In either case, the intention of this award is to allow the instructor to become a more skillful practitioner of watercolor, to become a more knowledgeable watercolor instructor, and to increase art students’ exposure to watercolor.
