The Coral Springs Craft Guild was excited to present 2 scholarships of $500 each to 2 Coral Springs seniors for their artistic endeavors. First Place, went to Madalen Erez, a senior at Coral Springs Charter School. Madalen submitted 5 amazing photographs. Remarks from some of the judges were that there was so much talent in that room, and their high scores went to these photos because they were so emotionally moving!
Second Place, and recipient of the Michele Pennetti Memorial Scholarship was awarded to home schooled Sarah Salazar. Sarah submitted 3 works in watercolor, charcoal and colored pencils. Her detail work was grately appreciated and recognized by our judges.
Both artists have received their Scholarships and we wish them well in their future endeavors!
