Scholarship Recipient
Melanie Rodgers was the 2010 recipient of the Andy Arrants Memorial Scholarship. As the winner, Melanie received her art supply kit for free (approximately $500 value)! Thanks to the Arrants family for their generosity and support of the Creative Center students!
Andy Arrants (1986-2007) was a graphic art student at the Creative Center. He was also a gifted tattoo artist as well as an avid fine artist. This scholarship is dedicated to Andy's memory and created with the intent of assisting students who are pursuing similar interests as Andy.

Project of the Month - Label Designs
In their second year, students are given the challenge of re-designing an existing product's label. Once the re-design is complete, students must then create a physical example (a mock-up) of the new label on the bottle or other container. These mock-ups are excellent ways to show a client what the finished product will look like.
