Who Can Apply:
- Hilda was a gifted and devoted artist. She always said that she was born with a pencil in one hand and a box of crayons in the other. Her artistic passion was creating portraits and filling her home and community with beautiful pieces of artwork.
- Over the years, she dabbled with several artistic mediums from pencil to charcoal to oil and finally found her true passion when she fell head over heels in love with pastels. And while her artistic passions led her to the canvas, her personal passions made her an amazing wife, mom, grandma, aunt, and special someone to many!
- Sadly, Hilda passed away in October 2021. Though Hilda never had an opportunity to pursue a degree in the arts herself, she encouraged other young artists around her to do so and enjoyed hearing about art education. The Hilda Klinger Memorial Scholarship seeks to honor the memory of Hilda Klinger by supporting students who are pursuing degrees in the arts.
- Any high school senior who is pursuing an arts degree may apply for this scholarship opportunity.
