The Festival of the Arts awards scholarships to students who are pursuing a college major in visual or performance arts. It is our way of ensuring that future generations will continue our legacy of love for the world of fine arts.
Applicants must live within the Oconomowoc Area School District boundaries, or attend Oconomowoc High School. Eligible students must have graduated from high school by June 2010 or earlier, and be pursuing a degree in the fine arts, either performing or visual. Applicants are encouraged to have volunteer experience in their community: i.e. church, hospital, Oconomowoc Chamber of Commerce, Festival of the Arts, etc.
