Webresource: Arts for Life Scholarship Program

From the LIFE of Fl Yahoo Group:

Former First Lady Columba Bush established in 1999 the Arts for Life!
Scholarship Program, which is now administered by the Foundation for
Excellence in Education. The program recognizes the exceptional talents
of 25 high school seniors in a Florida public, private or home
education school setting who demonstrate academic and artistic
excellence in the visual arts, dance, music or theatre.

Students interested in the program must complete an application,
provide a sample of work and write an essay briefly explaining the
influence of art and its role in their future. Each spring, scholarship
recipients are recognized and awarded $1,000 during a reception hosted
by Mrs. Bush in their honor.

For more information on the Arts for Life! Scholarship Program, contact
Lisa Kammel Raguso at (850) 345-6284 or lisa@excelined.org. To download
