The Manito Art League is accepting scholarship applications for students pursuing an education in the fine arts at a college, university, or professional school. Since 1979, the art league has awarded over $275,000 to students to be used toward tuition in acquiring their fine arts degree. This year the Art League will be hosting its 60th art show, and to celebrate, we have increased the monetary award of the scholarships which range from $1000 - $5000. In an effort to make students aware of these scholarships, we count on educators, such as yourself, to spread the word to interested students.. More information, as well as the application, can be found at manitoartleague.org. To download the application, click here.
In addition, the Manito Art League also offers scholarships for high school age and older individuals, to be used toward the fees for classes and workshops in the fine arts. To download this application, click here.
The art league greatly appreciates the work of educators in the arts, and thanks you for passing on this information on to your students. The deadline for both applications is May 1, 2025. |
