Use your talent to win a $5000 Scholarship


Weston Composition Scholarship
Open to University of Miami Art and Art History majors
Current sophomores and juniors are eligible with a minimum 3.0 overall GPA
Deadline: September 30, 2013 by 5:00 PM

Weston Insurance is looking for works of art for their offices: students can apply for this scholarship opportunity by sending a sketch using any 2d media (painting, graphic design, photography, printmaking, etc.) on letter sized paper: 

13 of these will be selected to be developed into larger works for which each student will be given $500 to cover their time and the materials cost. 

The 13 finalists' artwork will become the property of Weston Insurance.  The submitted artwork must be appropriate for a place of business (no nudity, for instance) but can be of any subject matter.

The company will vote in the Spring to give one of the finalists a $5000 scholarship. Students may enter up to two works each.

The application form is available in the art department office at Rainbow

Questions should be directed to Lara Gonzalez at lara.gonzalez@weston-ins.com

Preliminary sketches should be emailed to her. 

Weston Insurance is located at 2525 Ponce de Leon, Suite 1080, Coral Gables FL 33134
