WAS-H Awards Its Third Annual Scholarship
to The High School for the Performing and Visual Arts
By Wilson Windle, Outreach Director
WAS-H has awarded for the third year a $1,150 scholarship to a graduating senior
from the High School for the Performing and Visual Arts. Four applicants were forwarded to WAS-H by the Art Faculty of HSPVA, each one submitting a CD of images of their work, an Artist’s Statement, their resume and a bio. A review committee consisting of six Board members, Suzanne Leatherwood, Rosalie Ramsden, Reva Powers, Parrish Hirasaki, Stan Smith and Wilson Windle, reviewed the submissions and chose Portlynn Tagavi as the winner of the scholarship. The photographs of Portlynn’s pen drawings already reflect her considerable talent and skill as an artist. This scholarship is part of WASH’s Outreach Program.
