W.C. Bennett memorial Arts Scholarship

This scholarship honors the life of W.C. Bennett by supporting Gunnison High School (GHS) students who are pursuing degrees in the fine arts at Western Colorado University. Bill studied art at Western, where his teachers inspired him to expand his knowledge and perfect new techniques to create works that inspire examination and reflection. He was a supporter of and participant in the Gunnison Arts Center offerings from its founding. He enjoyed the friendship of many artists in the valley and took an active interest in emerging artists working in different mediums.
