Edward Hopper House Scholarship for Artistic Curiosity
|
The Edward Hopper House Scholarship for Artistic Curiosity is annually awarded to one high school Junior from each of the 10 public high schools in Rockland County. The schools' guidance counselors choose the recipients, with recommendations from the art, music, and english teachers. The scholarship is given to a student who, like Edward Hopper, exhibits unique creative sensibilities and follows her or his own artistic path - whether in visual arts, music, film, or writing. This may involve a non-traditional process, or the use of innovative media, as well as having the aptitude to give artistic expression to his or her vision.

THE PROGRAM WAS STARTED IN 2010 BY THEN TRUSTEE VICTORIA HERTZ TO RECOGNIZE CREATIVE HIGH SCHOOL JUNIORS AS THEY BEGIN PREPARATIONS FOR COLLEGE AND BEYOND. THE AWARD ENCOURAGES THESE TALENTED STUDENTS TO MAINTAIN THEIR CREATIVE INCLINATIONS AND CONSIDER PURSUING CAREERS IN THE ARTS. EACH STUDENT RECEIVES A $100 AWARD PLUS A 5-YEAR MEMBERSHIP AT THE EDWARD HOPPER HOUSE. THE AWARD HAS BEEN GENEROUSLY UNDERWRITTEN SINCE THE BEGINNING BY MARY EKMALIAN. |
