Anne Gilbert Visual Arts Scholarship Grant

The Anne Gilbert Visual Arts Scholarship, offered by the Muskingum County Community Foundation, aims to support undergraduate college sophomores pursuing studies in fine arts, graphic design, art and design, or fashion design. Applicants must be residents of Muskingum County, have completed their freshman year, and maintain a GPA of 2.5 or higher. This scholarship encourages artistic development and community engagement, allowing students to further their education and creative pursuits.

Mission & Vision
The Envisioned Future of the Muskingum County Community Foundation is that Muskingum County’s quality of life attracts organizations and people to pursue their dreams and practice their passions.
In 1985, civic leaders in the area established the Zanesville Development Corporation to generate ideas to enhance the quality of life in Zanesville. The corporation suggested three projects: formation of a community leadership program, an enhanced economic corridor along Interstate 70, and the establishment of a community foundation.
The award is designed to benefit an undergraduate college sophomore, but a past recipient may reapply for a junior or senior year scholarship in competition with sophomore applicants.

A qualified student must:

• Be a Muskingum County Resident
• Have completed the freshman year of post-secondary education
• Have a GPA of 2.5 or higher on a 4.0 scale
• Be a major in fine arts, graphic design, art and design, or fashion design
