The ROAC is a non-profit organization committed to supporting and promoting the arts, cultural institutions and art education. The scholarship program is the direct result of our fundraising efforts and it’s one of the ways our organization invests back into the community.
We were fortunate to have so many qualified seniors apply this year, and the Art Council wishes everyone good luck as they head into the next stage of their academic journey.
