The North Augusta Cultural Arts Council has received a grant from the Kevin and Brittany Kisner Foundation to provide dance scholarships to students and their families living in North Augusta that cannot afford to pay tuition. Therefore, we will offer Gift of Dance Scholarships to a select number of students with the desire to dance.

 

Eligibility:

Gift of Dance Scholarships will be awarded to students based on the following guidelines:
Financial Need
Scholarships will be awarded to students in grades k-12
Prior dance experience is not required.
The student’s desire to dance (must have a strong interest in and commitment to studying dance).

​

Amount & Value of Scholarship
The amount of scholarship will be determined by financial need. Scholarship students are expected to take the recommended number of classes for their level and attend regularly. The value of each scholarship will vary.

​

Requirements for participating in the Gift of Dance Scholarship Program are:

• Consistent Attendance and Punctuality

• Respect & Positive Attitude

​

Granting Process

Applications must be complete, to be considered for the scholarship.  If you are recommending a student for this scholarship, a recommendation form and an application must be completed.

 

These funds will be distributed in a fair and responsible manner by the North Augusta Arts Council’s Kisner Grant Committee and are awarded on a financial need basis, and on the availability of funds.  Applicants will be notified when the review process is complete.
