The MAEA is happy to award one to two scholarships to a Junior or Senior college student who is enrolled in an art education (or art & education program) program in the state of Michigan. These scholarships are intended to aid students who are seriously pursuing a career and course of study to become art educators.

Part of our mission as a professional organization is to advocate for future art educators and help progress the study of art in the K-12 setting. Any student demonstrating a commitment to art education who wishes to continue as a full-time student at an accredited Michigan college or university, is urged to apply. 

The scholarships will be awarded based on the quality and presentation of artwork, references, and personal narrative submitted. All awards will be made without regard to race, gender, sexual orientation, religion, or national origin.
