Posted on by Mcnamara, Keri

This year due to Covid-19 the Art Department has taken its scholarship competition online. We are excited to have scholarships available for students currently enrolled in at least one Art class this semester. The scholarship competition is being hosted as a Canvas class so if you would like to participate head on over to this link and self-enroll in the class. There is no grade and it will not effect your GPA.

The deadline to submit a completed application, and images of your works of art, is Wed., April 27, 2022 at 11:59 p.m. Scholarship recipients will be listed as an announcement on the scholarship Canvas site. The Palomar College Foundation will also notify winners in writing.
