Judy Vadasz Scholarship for
Art Educator Certification
In 2024, the Sonoma Plein Air Foundation Board established the Judy Vadasz Scholarship in recognition of Judy's visionary contributions to the organization as cofounder, board member and patron since 2002. Today, Judy is the Director Emeritus of the board in an advisory role. The scholarship's purpose is to help grow art education in our Valley with financial support for an art education certification for a Sonoma Valley elementary school teacher. The $1,200 Judy Vadasz Scholarship will be available each year to be awarded to a qualified candidate: a teacher in the Sonoma Valley Unified School District who wants to become certified to teach art in grades K-5. The Sonoma Plein Air Foundation's mission since our founding in 2002 has been to fund arts education for the children and youth of Sonoma Valley. The addition of this scholarship to our funding program is a direct response to the increasing need for elementary teachers certified to teach art classes and the decreasing financial support available to interested, qualified individual. |
Application criteria include an intention to pursue a certificate to teach art in an SVUSD elementary school, proof of acceptance into an art education certificate program and the recommendation of their current principal.
