Helping to Advance the Arts at JMU,
the Community and Beyond
The College of Visual and Performing Arts is keeping the arts relevant. Through elements of imagination, creativity and innovation, our students are preparing to face societal challenges with fresh perspectives. To this end, the College has three primary funding initiatives:
Dr. George E. Sparks Scholarship Endowment
Visual and Performing Arts programs are highly competitive. A strong scholarship endowment allows JMU to recruit the best and brightest students. Increasing endowment funds for the College will provide long-term security for scholarship awards into the future, and help JMU to establish a recruiting advantage and attract the most talented artists.
