The Louisville Artisans Guild is inviting high school seniors to apply for its $2,000 scholarship, supporting young artists pursuing careers in non-performing visual arts.
The scholarship opportunity is available to graduating seniors from specific counties in Kentucky and Indiana, including Jefferson, Oldham, Shelby and Bullitt in Kentucky, as well as Floyd, Clark and Harrison in Indiana.
Eligible students must plan to major in a visual arts-related field, maintain a minimum 2.0 GPA, and submit a portfolio showcasing their talent. To enter for a chance at winning, applicants are required to provide five images or videos of their best work, offering a glimpse into their artistic potential to the Louisville Artisans Guild.
The scholarship application is open until February 14 next year at 4:00 p.m. According to the guild, students are encouraged to submit their materials promptly to be considered for this one-time award.
Founded in 1956, the Louisville Artisans Guild is Kentucky’s oldest arts and crafts guild. Since its inception in 1995, this scholarship has grown from its original $300 award to the current $2,000.
