Support the AHAG Student Scholarship Fund
Investing in the Next Generation of Artists
For many years, the Arlington Heights Art Guild has awarded scholarships through a juried art competition to graduating high school seniors who have demonstrated artistic talent, creativity, and achievement. These scholarships have traditionally been funded through proceeds from our annual Walk in the Park Fine Art Fair and other Guild activities. To strengthen and expand this important program, the Guild has established a dedicated AHAG Student Scholarship Fund.
To strengthen this charitable program, the Guild has established a dedicated AHAG Student Scholarship Fund. We are now seeking your financial support to help grow this fund to continue to recognize artistic excellence, and encourage this emerging talent. This dedicated Fund will help ensure that tradition continues and to grow in the future. The AHAG Student Scholarship Fund provides members, patrons, alumni, businesses, and community supporters with a direct way to help young artists pursue their educational and creative goals. See below 3 possible ways to contribute to this important fund.
