The Lake Region Arts Council (LRAC) has had to make several significant decisions because of the impact of the COVID 19 virus and the downturn in Minnesota’s economy.
Letter from the Executive Director
LRAC’s Arts Mentorship Program
The Arts Mentorship Program provides scholarships to public, private and home-schooled students in the 9th, 10th and 11th grades. This program gives them the opportunity to study with a professional artist – a mentor – for 15 hours during the summer months. Students can choose to study an art form such as dance, music, theater, visual art, creative writing, costume and set design, architecture, etc. All applicants must audition in front of a panel of jurors in order to receive a scholarship.
