Little Sellers scholarship program

The Little Sellers scholarship program of $2,000 was created as part of the art prize, to assist Eurobodalla visual art students in years 11 or 12 to further their studies and support a career path in the arts.

The scholarship is generously provided by art collector, patron of the arts and philanthropist Mr Basil Sellers AM.
