Foci MCGA Youth Camp Scholarship Application
Foci MCGA is committed to building and supporting a diverse and inclusive arts community open to everyone who would like to work with glass. Foci MCGA recognizes that there are deep and persistent societal, cultural, economic, and racial barriers to making art, particularly the glass medium. One way in which Foci MCGA expresses this commitment to arts access is by removing financial barriers.

We offer two scholarship options:
-A need based half-tuition scholarship open to anyone with financial need
-A full-tuition scholarship open to Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC)

Anyone with financial need is eligible to apply for a half tuition scholarship, while BIPOC students are qualified to apply for full scholarships. One scholarship spot is available for all classes, including our visiting artist classes and youth camps; scholarship preference per class is given to the full scholarships. Due to limited scholarship funds, only one scholarship per student, per calendar year will be awarded.

Scholarship applications are currently open for Summer 2025 and close April 9, 2025. Applicants will be notified of their status on April 17, 2025. If applying after April 9, 2025 please email our Program Coordinator abbey.uffelman@mnglassart.org to see if there are openings. Only one scholarship spot is available each camp session. We are unable to provide two scholarships in the same camp session for siblings to attend at this time.

Please note that some classes on the website may appear to be sold out, however, there may still be an open scholarship spot reserved for that class. Also, some classes may have a scholarship spot still available less than 1 month before the start date. Please inquire with any questions about specific classes or availability.

For questions regarding Scholarships please email Foci MCGA’s Program Coordinator at abbey.uffelman@mnglassart.org.
