Scholarship support is vital to the cultural, performance, and visual arts. Scholarships allow art students to focus on honing their skills and be more deeply immersed academically without additional financial constraint.  Your support opens the door for students of all backgrounds to participate in artistic expression and enlivens our community. Help us rise by establishing a scholarship and joining the John R. Buchtel Society today.
