Programs to Support
Scholarships
Support student success with a donation to LCAD’s scholarship funds or by joining the Art+ Scholarship Circle.
Annual Fund
Annual Fund donations support key resources and opportunities for students including: merit scholarships, industry tours, guest speakers on campus, portfolio-building workshops, gallery exhibitions, senior-thesis presentations and more.
Campus Pantry
LCAD has designed a campus pantry to support 78% of students who experience food insecurity. Donations support the completion of the pantry infrastructure: ensuring adequate food storage to maintain freshness, a worker to maintain inventory, and the technology to allow students 24/7 access to the pantry.
Study Abroad
LCAD students receive offers to share and develop their artistic practice around the world, but most do not have the resources to seize the opportunity. As LCAD expands its Study Abroad programs, we are seeking support for our Study Abroad Scholarship Fund.
