Southern Chapter Student Awards
NMWS-SC’s Lucia Wilcox Memorial Scholarship Fund provides educational support to local area educational institutions and was named for our 2005-2006 president, Lucia Wilcox, who was an educator.
We raise money for the student award program by raffle ticket sales at each regular meeting, and by donations from members. We have provided watercolor supplies to schools at all levels throughout the region and have developed an ongoing relationship with the Fine Arts department of Western New Mexico University in Silver City where we sponsor an award for best watercolor in their juried annual student exhibit.
