List of Scholarships for Art

While most of us enjoy studying the arts in school, few seriously consider making it a full-time career. As we learn later in life, however, art involves more than drawing a picture on a piece of paper. Music, dance and sculpture are all part of art as well. Those who wish to pursue some sort of artistic career can find plenty of scholarships aimed at helping them achieve those goals.
  1. The John F. and Anna Lee Stacey Scholarship Fund

    • Open to U.S. citizens ages 18 to 35, the John F. and Anna Lee Stacey Scholarship Fund provides an annual award of $5,000 for traditional artists who specialize in Western tradition and culture. Recipients are allowed to use the funds however they see fit, as long as it furthers their education in Western culture.
