R&F is happy to announce that we will be awarding a Merit Scholarship to one lucky participant in Kelly McGrath’s post-conference workshop,
Casting, Building, Sculpting on June 3 & 4th

Everyone who is registered for this class by March 15th, 2013 will be considered for the Scholarship, which means Castle Hill will give your money back to you and R&F will pick up your full tuition. You could then take a second class, or spend that money in the vendor room! Even better: there is no application process – just sign up for the class, and we will *magically pick a winner, who will be announced on April 1st. Sign up now and good luck!

*Artists will be evaluated based on their websites, (don’t even ask, “what if I don’t have one?”). To optimize your chances, make sure your site is updated and looking good. Financial need will not be a selection criterion.
