RISING ARTISTS SCHOLARSHIP PROGRAM

Art Camp 504’s mission is to provide high quality art education for passionate young artists in New Orleans. Our Rising Artists Scholarship Program provides financial aid based on annual income for students ages 8 - 14. Information listed on the scholarship application is strictly confidential. 

ABOUT OUR SCHOLARSHIP PROGRAM:

• Students ages 8+ may apply for scholarship funding. We require a non-refundable registration deposit of $10/day. This deposit covers our materials fee of $50/week.

• We review applications in the order in which they were received. We will contact you within one week if a spot is available in your selected class.

• If no spots are available, we will add you to the waitlist.

• Our largest scholarships, 50% - 75% discounts, are reserved for students that demonstrate the most financial need. We ask that you request only the percent you need to attend - our funding is limited and we serve many families in need.

• We have high behavior expectations for our students. Students with disruptive behavior or excessive absences will not be considered for future scholarships. We are looking for students that are excited to make amazing art!
