FAA Arts Scholarship Program

Folsom Arts Association is proud to announce our first of what we hope will be an annual FAA Arts Scholarship to benefit local students pursuing arts education. This year, thanks to the generosity of FAA members and community donations, FAA was able to award $1,000 to a deserving Folsom Lake College student, Santino Sfrengeu. Santino has been invited to attend our June membership meeting and share more about himself and his art.

For more information and to donate to next year’s scholarship fund, visit the FAA Arts Scholarship Program.
