Constant Memorial Scholarship

Name: Constant Memorial Scholarship

Award Amount: $2,000 to $5,000

Information And Eligibility:
The Constant Memorial Scholarship is a merit-based award created to support residents of Aquidneck Island, Rhode Island, who are pursuing advanced study in the visual or performing arts. This scholarship is intended for students who have demonstrated a serious commitment to art or music and who plan to continue developing their creative talents through formal higher education. By investing in emerging artists and musicians, the scholarship helps strengthen the cultural and artistic life of the local community while supporting students as they progress toward professional careers in the arts.

The scholarship is available to undergraduate students entering their sophomore, junior, or senior year at an accredited four-year college or university. Applicants must be actively pursuing a degree or structured course of study in art or music, which may include fields such as fine arts, studio art, graphic design, painting, sculpture, art history, music performance, music education, composition, or related disciplines. Students enrolled in conservatories or specialized arts programs may also be eligible, provided their institution meets accreditation requirements.

A key focus of the Constant Memorial Scholarship is artistic dedication and long-term vision. Applicants are evaluated on their demonstrated talent, academic progress, and commitment to their chosen discipline. Strong candidates are those who can clearly articulate how their education will contribute to their artistic development and how they plan to use their skills to enrich the broader arts community. Financial need may be considered, but primary emphasis is placed on artistic promise and academic readiness.

Applicants must complete the Rhode Island Foundation’s Universal Eligibility Quiz, which determines whether they qualify for this and other scholarships administered through the foundation. Students are encouraged to carefully review all scholarship requirements before submitting materials, as incomplete or late applications are not accepted. Awards are competitive, and selection is based on a holistic review of the student’s academic record, artistic focus, and overall application strength.

Scholarship funds may be used to support tuition, required fees, books, supplies, instruments, materials, or other education-related expenses associated with studying art or music. Award amounts typically range from $2,000 to $5,000, depending on available funding and the number of qualified applicants. Funds are generally paid directly to the student’s institution to be applied toward educational costs.
