The Kenan Arts Council annually awards two college scholarships of $1,000 each to eastern Niagara County high school students pursuing degrees in art, dance, design, theater, or music. Applicants must meet high academic standards with a minimum high school average of 80%, and be involved in extracurricular and community activities. Applications are distributed through school guidance offices in Barker, Niagara Wheatfield, Royalton-Hartland, Starpoint, Lockport, Newfane, and Wilson, and the music, theater, and art departments of these schools.
