Are you a member of any organization outside your school? Please provide information
Please provide any academic achievements or awards you have received inside or outside of high school. These can be related to your academics, community involvement, or the art discipline you are pursuing. If you haven't received any, that's super ok! Then let us know if there is an award you'd like to receive in the future and why. Or, if you think awards don't have value to you, let us know why? It's ok to be serious or comedic. The spirit of this scholarship award is about being yourself.
Are you working? If yes, please provide details below (Optional)
Only one of the three below are required for review. (Video link, Portfolio link, or Essay) We provide flexibility in the way you can present your work, as each art form and person are unique.

Although only one of the three is required, feel free to submit something different in each of the categories below if you think it would help us better understand and showcase your abilities, desires, passions, and personality.
1) VIDEO Submission: Insert a link to a video you have created. Create a 2-5 minute video of your choice. Or provide one you've already created and would like to share. It can make us laugh, cry, be thought provoking content, or perhaps a portfolio of your talent. It can be simple, complex, or simply entertainingly creative. The quality of the video itself is not necessarily what will be reviewed, but the content. It can help us better understand you, your talents, or purely 2-5 minutes of entertainment. This is your opportunity to be unique!
2) PORTFOLIO Submission: Please insert a link to any of your digital portfolios, writings, music, art, film, stage management, technical skills, or performances you'd like to share. It can be one link or multiple sites.
