Wanish Scholarship (June & Robert Wanish Fund for the Arts)

June & Robert Wanish Fund for the Arts

The June & Robert Wanish Fund for the Arts was established in 2003 with a vision to encourage and support the enjoyment, appreciation and growth of the arts in communities.

Background: June Wanish, a native of Roseville and the first woman mayor of Roseville, was instrumental in implementing programs that brought cultural arts to the community. In the early 1960s, she led a small group that in 1966 formed "Roseville Community Projects, Inc." to bring arts to the community. The organization eventually transformed into Blue Line Arts.
