Korum Family Arts Scholarship Competition

The Korum Family Arts Scholarship Competition is intended to promote appreciation for the arts, to encourage young artists in the pursuit of their artistic and educational growth, and to showcase the uniqueness of Washington State.

Scholarships will be awarded to the top three finishers in the competition (first place: $2,500, second place: $1,500, third place: $1,000) and are paid directly to the recipient’s college or university to be used toward tuition or books within 24 months of award.

The winning piece (1st place) will be retained by the Foundation and auctioned at the annual Washington State Fair Foundation Round Up Auction; it will not be returned to the student.

All proceeds from the sale of the winning art piece will fund the Washington State Fair Foundation scholarship program.

This is a special competition of the Washington State Fair Junior/Senior High School Art Show. Online registration will open in early January and will close at the end of March. Artwork will be displayed in the Jr/Sr High Art Show at the Washington State Spring Fair.
