Larry T. Baza Memorial Scholarship Fund
Larry T. Baza was a fierce advocate for LGBTQ+ rights, and for the arts and artists—especially BIPOC artists. He frequently called on LGBTQ+ youth to carry on the legacy of those who came before him. This scholarship has been created by Lambda Archives of San Diego in his honor as a way to support local students in their path to seeking education and training. Funding will be provided to community college students of any or no gender who are both LGBTQ+ and either Chicano/x, Latinx, or Chamorro. Applications are now open and scholarship recipients will be announced by June 1, 2026. The deadline to apply is May 28, 2026.
