David '05 and Sara '10 Walton Metal Thesis Support Fund

The fund will provide a one-time, non-renewable award(s) to be used to advance the success of one or more graduate or undergraduate Metal student(s) as they prepare to complete their thesis exhibition(s). The fund may help underwrite travel, or the purchase of materials or equipment necessary for a metal student’s final thesis project.

Students should be an MFA in Metal enrolled in ARS790 (Thesis 1) and/or a BFA Metal major enrolled in ARS421 (Senior Studio 1) in the Fall semester. Applicants will provide written justification for their selection and provide a projected budget: list the materials, services or other types of support that would help you reach your thesis project goals and explain how the scholarship fund would enhance your thesis. Awards amounts will be determined by the committee and may not necessarily be given every year.
