Scholarships

We are proud to offer need-based scholarships to passionate young artists who would not otherwise be able to attend the Snow Farm Summer program for high school students. The maximum award can be up to a third of the cost of the program.  Scholarship requests are included in the standard application. Applicants are required to provide to document family income by submitting a tax return.  

Generous support of these scholarships comes from individual donors, partner organizations, and other fundraising by Snow Farm.
