Who Can Apply:
- Despite the contributions of artists from all walks of life, many have been historically excluded from opportunities and leadership within the realm of professionals. The WCEJ Thornton Foundation believes it is critical to support the creative ambitions of these individuals to facilitate a future with a greater variety of voices within the artistic community.
- To support this ideal, a $1,000 WCEJ Thornton Foundation Music & Art Scholarship will be awarded to thirty individuals with an interest in pursuing their study of the arts in higher education, with preference given to arts majors. You must be a current undergraduate student or a high school graduate/high school senior who will be enrolled in a higher education program by August 2026 to apply for this scholarship opportunity.
Submission: To apply, please tell us how you want to make a positive impact on the world through your art. Additionally, please submit some samples of your artwork/music/other creations!
Deadline: July 2, 2026
