Welcome! 

Thank you for your interest in applying for the Figurative Art Convention & Expo (FACE) Scholarship Program. We look forward to receiving your materials and wish you every success with your application.

The deadline to complete and submit an application is Sunday, August 30, 2020 at 11:59 p.m. ET. There will be NO extensions to this deadline. Incomplete applications will not be considered.

To apply, you must be:

  • A student between the ages of 18 and 26 enrolled (full- or part-time) in a college art program, art school, or atelier
  • An art educator currently teaching painting, drawing, or sculpture full- or part-time in a college art program, art school, academy, or atelier

Your Age

Please note that the ages cited here pertain to your age today and also to your age on October 29, 2020, when FACE will start. Fine Art Connoisseur is pleased to use this generous standard in order to encourage as many applications as possible. For example, if you are not yet 18 years old, but you will be 18 on October 29, 2020, you are eligible to apply. Similarly, if you are 26 today but have already turned 27 by October 29, 2020, you are still eligible to apply. In all cases, you MUST provide your exact date/year of birth in the appropriate area of the application, as indicated below. Any application without this information will be disqualified immediately.

〉By submitting this application, you agree that, if you win a scholarship, Fine Art Connoisseur can use your full name in its own publicity, and that you will stand up to be acknowledged by name during the opening ceremony for FACE. If you win a Student Scholarship, you agree to share a room with a fellow Student Scholarship recipient of the same gender. 

If you win a scholarship, your complimentary FACE registration will be non-transferable and subject to any applicable taxes.
