“My goal is to help honor and promote the artistic talents of young artistic students of my community, to help build future careers and a creative workforce by sharing with them an experience of higher level education, and cultivate a lifelong passion for the arts.” Lisa Frost Since 2005, “Frost & Friends” has granted 83 scholarships to young artists. Here is the background story... Lisa Frost began her career as a certified art teacher. Never forgetting her roots, she is committed to supporting children in the arts. Through the proceeds generated from the annual Frost & Friends event 2005-2015, and sale of a holiday ornament/cookie 2016, she has been the catalyst to grant scholarships to students to attend the “Summer in the Arts” a weeklong residential immersion camp at Northern Illinois University in DeKalb, IL. Each spring she solicits regional art teachers (Rockford, IL) asking for nominations of talented and passionate students who need and deserve art experiences. Then she gathers together her committee and they select students based on merit. Written nominations and visual presentations from area art teachers or high school counselors are welcomed in the month of March. Decisions are made in late April.
