Waterloo, Iowa The Friends of the Waterloo Center for the Arts are now accepting applications for the Raymond T. Forsberg Scholarship, Marilyn S. Hurley Memorial Scholarship and the Preceptor Beta Lambda Scholarship, all in the amount of $1,000. These art scholarships are available to graduating seniors attending high school within a 35-mile radius of Waterloo who are interested in pursuing a post-secondary degree in the visual arts (art education, graphic design/graphic communications, fine arts, photography, etc.). A panel of art professionals will select the scholarship winners based on students’ application, essay, portfolio, transcript, SAT/ACT scores and letters of recommendation. All application materials are due by 5:00 p.m. on Friday, April 14, 2017. Three scholarship winners will be notified by mail the first week in May, with an honors reception following later that month. Students can download an application at waterloocenterforthearts.org, pick-up an application in person at the Waterloo Center for the Arts, or request one by contacting the Center at 319.291.4490 or museum@waterloo-ia.org. The Waterloo Center for the Arts stimulates inquiry, provokes dialogue and connects people through the arts.
