Student Scholarships
Introducing the 2024 Spicewood Arts Scholars!
Spicewood Arts announces four winners of the Spicewood Scholars selected from the graduating senior classes of Lake Travis and Marble Falls High Schools and eleven returning winners of previous scholarships. Each receives up to a $1,500 award.
All have passed a rigorous grading process requiring them to submit samples of their work, show classes in the arts, competitions, grades, and financial needs. Each student will be pursuing further studies in arts-related fields.
With this year’s awards, Spicewood Arts has awarded more than $175,000 and the number of scholarships given yearly has more than doubled. The scholarships are supported by the Spicewood Arts annual fundraiser in February and individual donations throughout the year.
This year’s winners from Marble Falls and Lake Travis High Schools include:
Tabitha Anstey
Lake Travis High School
Tabitha will be attending The University of Texas at Austin in the fall, majoring in Design. I have a passion for ceramics and industrial design. I have competed in many competitions, including VASE and The Scholastic Art Competition, winning gold seals and silver keys. I am extremely excited to continue my career in art at UT!
Roselyn Arredondo
Marble Falls High School
Roselyn is a graduate of Marble Falls High School and is currently pursuing a degree in Architecture at Rice University. In her free time, she enjoys reading, drawing, and studying languages.
Cash Bourgoyne
Lake Travis High School
Cash was born in San Jose, California, but has spent most of my childhood in Austin. He has been an avid musician—performer, writer, and producer—for most of his life. Since the pandemic, he’s been learning music production to create his own music and to produce projects for friends and school. Additionally, he has taken classes in film, computer science, and French language. This fall, he’ll be studying audio engineering at Belmont University in Nashville.
Sophia Mills
Marble Falls High School
Sophia, a senior from Spicewood, TX, has just graduated in the top ten percent of her class at Marble Falls High School. Throughout high school, she has been involved in sports, the arts, and her local church. This fall, she will be attending the University of Texas at Austin. She hopes to pursue teaching to make a positive impact on the lives of students and continue serving the community in any way she can.
