The Marion Barr Stanfield Art Scholarship is for either graduate or undergraduate students preparing for a career in fine arts. The terms of the trust limit eligibility to those in the study of painting, drawing, photography, and/or sculpture. Performing arts majors are not eligible. Applicants must submit recommendations which should make reference to the qualities described in the essay question. A recommendation from a church official, which should establish and comment on the applicant's Unitarian Universalist affiliation, must be submitted. It should come from the applicant's minister or an officer of their church. A recommendation from an instructor should come from a teacher or instructor who is qualified to evaluate your educational experience. Applicants should obtain a recommendation from an instructor who is familiar with their artistic or legal qualifications. If the applicant has been out of school for a considerable amount of time, they may obtain a professional recommendation. Applicants must also submit their portfolio which should include 6-10 samples of what they consider to be their best work. The work should be recent and may be on a DVD or CD (Powerpoint is welcome). No more than 10 slides will be viewed; do not send more than 10. On a separate sheet, applicants must also submit a list of works that includes the title, medium, size, date, and a brief explanation of their work.
