    Society of Illustrators Student Scholarship Competition Awards Ringling College the Most Awards in 3 Years!

      

    February 18, 2010 - The Society of Illustrators has once again chosen a number of illustrations submitted by Ringling College students for inclusion in the 2010 Student Scholarship exhibition in New York City.

    This year's 20 illustrations marks a total of 81 entries admitted to the exhibition in the last 3 years for Ringling College - 24 more than any other college!

    Entries were chosen out of pieces submitted by colleges throughout the country. Only 195 total pieces were awarded a spot in the exhibition - and 20 of those went to Ringling College students for their works submitted from 2009. 

    According to the Society, the Student Scholarship Competition is the most competitive and prestigious of juried shows. Since its inception in 1981, the Society has awarded more than $1.5 million to deserving students. Selected by a celebrated jury, this exhibit features the most mature, sophisticated and well crafted illustration of the year from art schools around the country.
