Nancy Baur Dillen Art Teacher Scholarship

The Nancy Baur Dillen Art Teacher Scholarship, provided by the Community Foundation for Brevard, supports professional development for educators. This program is designed specifically for certified, full-time classroom art teachers employed by Brevard Public Schools. Selected recipients receive funding to attend a weeklong summer workshop at the Arrowmont School of Arts and Crafts in Tennessee.

The scholarship covers the cost of the chosen course, on-campus lodging, meals during the program, art supplies, and lab fees. Recipients must stay in on-campus housing for the duration of the workshop and are responsible for making and funding their own travel arrangements. This award is renewable, allowing recipients to receive the scholarship a maximum of two times. Because this program is a professional development scholarship for employed teachers rather than a traditional college financial aid package, it does not require the FAFSA or a state student aid application. The deadline to submit an application is Tuesday, January 12, 2027 by 11:59 p.m.
