Zona Murray Art Scholarships

​Visual and performing arts scholarships for local high school girls

One of Soroptimist International of Oceanside-Carlsbad's (SIOC) annual fundraising events is Heart For Art, which supports the Zona Murray Art Scholarships for local high school senior girls in Oceanside and Carlsbad.

Scholarship awards are for high school senior girls who live in either Oceanside or Carlsbad and intend to pursue continuing education with an emphasis on the arts. Traditionally ranging from $500 to $2,000 each, scholarships will be awarded to multiple students who show originality and talent in one of the two following judged categories:

Visual Arts - An original work composed by the artist in any media: drawing, painting, sculpture (including ceramics, paper and/or glass); print photography and decorative arts (including textiles and basket making). Choose up to three pieces that represent your best work in any of the areas above and submit the images of the work on a CD, thumb drive or digital photograph.

Performing Arts - Performing Arts are primarily those of the theater and concert hall. These include a solo performance in drama, dance, vocal or instrumental music. Please submit a CD or thumb drive of the one performance or piece that best represents your talent.
