For more than 30 years the Newton Art Association (NAA) has recognized art students through the NAA High School Senior Scholarship Program. NAA strongly believes that talented students deserve to be acknowledged for their artistic accomplishments.
Senior students who go to high school in Newton or are residents of Newton are eligible to apply for the scholarships. Consistently, the submitted artworks reveal an extensive range of creativity across all media, including painting, drawing, collage/mixed media, photography, jewelry, fabric art and 3D works.
Awards are based on an overall assessment of the senior’s creativity, artistic expression, technical skills, and personal statement. The recipients share $3,000 in scholarship money.
Eligible students can apply online from February 8 through March 30, 2021. A virtual award ceremony will be held May 5. Details about the program and online application process can be found on the NAA website. If you know a talented high school senior, encourage them to apply.
