Shirley Fritz Memorial
Fine Arts Scholarship

Each year, through Trinity UMC the Fine Arts Committee awards a $500 scholarship to a selected individual who is pursuing a course of study in any area of the fine arts. The applicant must be enrolled in a junior high school, high school, college or university, and be a member of TUMC or actively involved in a church-sponsored program.

Scholarships are to be used for tuition to study the fine arts. Eligible programs include college classes, specialized training, summer camps or special programs in any facet of the fine arts.

For further information please contact the church office for further details at (847) 439-0950.

CONGRATULATIONS TO OUR 2007
FINE ARTS SCHOLARSHIP WINNERS

The Trinity Fine Arts Committee is happy to announce the winners of the Shirley Fritz Memorial Fine Arts Scholarship for 2007.  This year the scholarship has been awarded to:

Thomas MamolaBobby Kennedy • Edward Martin

Tom Mamola has been working on building a solid photography foundation in work and education.  He will be attending The Art Institute in the fall of 2007 and will be taking classes in photography, film/video, painting, sculpture, as well as art history.

Bobby Kennedy attends Boston University and is the Secretary of the Boston University Stage Troupe, the oldest and largest student-run theatre group on campus.    He also has directed his first ever play “Bad Habits” to rave reviews.  His real passion is writing of plays and has written short sketches for most the Stage Troupe events.

Edward Martin attends Prospect High School and has been involved in the band program during his freshman year.  He has done an outstanding job of contributing to the concert band during the winter and spring.  Due to scheduling demands, this has meant coming to rehearsals during his lunch period many days.

We congratulate all three of our scholarship recipients and also remember and acknowledge the generosity of the Shirley Fritz Memorial Fine Arts Scholarship including Ken Fritz and his family.   


Each year the Fine Arts Committee of Trinity United Methodist Church develops a program that encompasses a broad range of fine arts events that take place at Trinity and at other venues throughout our community. Our intent is to provide a schedule that is both entertaining and diverse so as to provide something of interest for everyone in the congregation. We hope that we have achieved this goal and that you will enjoy this season’s lineup.

I have intentionally left passed events on this page in order to maintain a record of what activities the Fine Arts Committee has sponsored this year. If you have any comments or suggestions that would benefit Trinity and its fine arts program please feel free to email me, Kathy Reiter and it will be brought up to committee.

Thank you for your support
Kathy Reiter, Fine Arts Committee Chair
