Supporting the Artist of Promise Scholarship Fund

Artful Investments: Supporting the Artist of Promise Scholarship Fund is Jaden Kyung-Moon Bauch's initiative to bridge art and financial empowerment. Over 15 weeks, Jaden created and sold over 500 original watercolor paintings resulting in a donation of over $3,000 to the Artist of Promise Scholarship Fund at MECA&D, which supports aspiring artists in their education. Jaden's mission is to prove that art can be both a passion and a path to economic empowerment, creating opportunities for young artists to thrive.

The Artists of Promise scholarship is awarded to students who show promise of enriching the Maine College of Art & Design community by bringing unique life experiences, cultural perspectives, and valuable insights to the classroom. Candidates may qualify through their firsthand experiences with social injustice and systemic inequalities, their advocacy for change within their communities, or by overcoming hardships with courage and determination.
