SYLACAUGA, Ala. – Sylacauga Community Playhouse (SCP) is accepting applicants for their 2020 Performing Arts Scholarship. Applicants will be considered on the basis of academic merit, talent, character and demonstrated achievement in one or more areas of the performing arts.
Students may be graduating high school seniors or first-time college freshmen or sophomores. All applicants must enroll as full-time college or university students, majoring in performing arts (theatre, music or dance). All scholarships are awarded without regard to race, color, religion, sex, national origin or disability. Students may be a recipient of an SCP scholarship only two times prior to their junior year of college study.
“This fund was established when the SCP incorporated into a 501 (c)(3) in December 2014 to assist students who want to pursue their fine arts in their post-secondary education,” stated SCP Board Member Amy McDonald.
The SCP Scholarship Fund is generated through donations from individuals and corporations. McDonald invites anyone that has a passion to support young artists and promote access to the arts for everyone to please consider making a donation to the SCP Scholarship Fund.
