Scholarship Program for Art Teachers
Purpose: One of the primary purposes of The American Watercolor Society is to foster the appreciation of the watercolor media. Such appreciation can be greatly enhanced by the actual experience of painting with watercolor. AWS has established a scholarship program to give art teachers with little or no experience with watercolor the opportunity to gain such experience. This experience can further enhance their instruction and influence their students to use the watercolor media. |
