ART SCHOLARSHIP FUND | 2011-2012 CAMPAIGN
Supporting the Nash Gallery
Think about it. The single most important activity for a U of M undergraduate art student is...to create art! Making art is a time-intensive activity, one that requires physical and mental energy, a ton of various art supplies and materials, and the time and studio space for an artist to follow a creative inspiration.
Trying to work a full-time or even part-time job in order to make ends meet during college creates a significant stumbling block to an art student. After putting in 20 to 40 hours per week of work, plus class time and homework, there's not much time nor energy left for the young artist to create new works.
Astute and caring individuals have realized this over the years, and they've created endowed scholarship funds for talented artists with financial needs. Some have chosen to support graduate fellowships in art for those students seeking their MFA degrees.Whatever the case, both art scholarships and fellowships are incredibly important to the students they serve.
Be a hero! Make a gift to the Art Scholarship Fund (Fund #8255) today. You'll see the fruits of your support reflected in the artwork displayed in our University art gallery, the Katherine E. Nash Gallery.
You can donate to the Evonne Lindberg Art Scholarship Fund, Fund #48255 via our secured-site online giving link. If you prefer, you can also contact Joe Sullivan, development officer for the arts, at 612-624-8573 or jmsulliv@umn.edu and make your donation through him.
Your tax-deductible support of the Nash Gallery is so appreciated – thank you! We hope to see you at an exhibition at the Nash Gallery during academic year 2011-2012.
