Every spring POSSCA awards up to four arts scholarships to area high school seniors. An adjudication panel of local artists, musicians and theater professionals bases their award choices solely on talent, rather than need or academics, making the scholarships a recognition of artistic achievement and dedication to the student’s craft. The awards are given in the following areas:

  • Visual Arts
  • Theater Performance
  • Musical Performance - Instrumental
  • Musical Performance - Vocal
