Scholarships

Curry Arts provides scholarships for art students in Curry County. There are two scholarship opportunities:

  • Scholarship for art classes at Southwestern Oregon Community College:  An art scholarship opportunity for Gold Beach High School students

In 2014, Curry Arts began offering two scholarships each term to Gold Beach High School students to enroll in an art course at the  Southwestern Oregon Community College (SWOCC) Center, located at the fairgrounds in Gold Beach.

In addition to covering the registration and fees for a one-credit hour class, we will also pay for a “starter kit” that includes good quality paints and brushes for the Watercolor Basics class taught by Dauna Roberts. Dauna puts the kits together at cost for her students and Curry Arts will cover up to $150 for the kit the first time a student enrolls in the class.

Our intention is to increase the art opportunities for our high school students in addition to increasing the enrollment in the local SWOCC classes.

Curry Arts President Theresa Hendrix, who works in the main office at Gold Beach High School, coordinates the program. If you are a student or know a student who would like to take advantage of this opportunity, please contact Theresa at Gold Beach High School.
