Tuition Assistance for Youth 

At Berkshire Art Center, we believe creativity should be for everyone! That’s why we offer needs-based scholarships that can cover up to 100% of tuition for our youth programs.

Getting to class is easy too — we provide transportation reimbursements of up to $25 per participant for up to 6 days programming, so nothing stands in the way of exploring your creativity.

Applying is simple! Scholarship recipients must hold EBT, WIC, or ConnectorCare cards, and Pittsfield residents receive priority for studio program scholarships. Just submit your application at least two weeks before your course begins. (Scholarships do not cover materials fees.)

Thanks to our amazing partners — Berkshire Bank, Lee Bank, Adams Community Bank, and Greylock Federal Credit Union — we’re able to help children experience the joy of making art.

Don’t miss your chance! Scholarships and transportation support are limited and awarded based on available funding, so apply early and start creating today!
