Emerging Artists

Crealdé believes in helping students to hone their skills and mature as artists. Advanced students may apply to one of the following three Crealdé programs:

Studio Artist Residency Program

The Studio Artist Residency Program provides classes and workshops with free or reduced tuition, studio access to produce their art, and an opportunity to be mentored by a Crealdé faculty member. The Studio Artist appointment is for one year and an additional year may be granted by request. Members of this group show the results of their work in a biennial exhibition.

Cheryl Bogdanowitsch Sculpture Scholarship

Cheryl Bogdanowitsch Sculpture Scholarship Program uses funds provided by long-time Crealdé friend, supporter and renowned sculptor, Cheryl Bogdanowitsch. This year-long scholarship of $1000 for classes, workshops and studio use is awarded to an adult sculpture student.

“I used to drive by this place with the intention of checking it out. Drove by for so many years. And now I can’t believe I didn’t go in sooner. I am back to making sculpture with clay. I also took an awesome welding workshop and assisted in a great community project working with live body casting. … The teachers, the facility, and the little community of artists (all ages, all levels) – fill my days with joy.” – Mila Dykes, Fellowship Student, Sculpture
