Helping Kalama High School students pursue their passion!

KAMA Art Scholarships

A $1,000 scholarship is available in 2026

2026 Scholarship Deadline: April 30, 2026

Scholarships are crucial to funding a college education. Without the aid of scholarships, many students would be unable to attend college at all. That’s why as an art association, KAMA is proud to honor students from our local Kalama School District with an art scholarship. We hold the arts in high esteem, and feel it is important for students to have the opportunity to hone their talents and develop their skills in a field that they are passionate about.
