Design*Sponge Scholarship

January 8, 2007 · Leave a Comment

Brooklyn-based blog Design*Sponge is offering a new scholarship for art and design students. From the site:

The Design*Sponge Scholarship is intended to assist art and design students in the pursuit of their creative endeavors through financial support. Three financial awards will be given in amounts of at least $2,000, $1,000 and $500. Funds will be raised through a charity-shop, donations and sponsorship support. The goal of the scholarship is to raise upwards of $5,000 to support art and design students working in the United States. If funds exceed the goal amount the money will be distributed accordingly between the three winners. The scholarship will begin accepting applications on January 1, 2007 until March 15, 2007. Applicants will be narrowed into a small group of ten finalists who will be interviewed via podcast and/or video and narrowed to a final three via voting on Design*Sponge during the month of April. The final winners will be announced and rewarded on May 1, 2007.
