We are proud to have established the Douglas Blankenship Memorial Photography Scholarship, dedicated to supporting students who demonstrate exceptional talent and financial need in the field of photography. This scholarship honors the memory of Douglas, who overcame numerous challenges during his time in the photography program and whose passion for the art continues to inspire. Each year up to 3 students will be awarded up to $1,000 to assist with their educational expenses. Eligible students must be enrolled in the photography program at Ivy Tech State College, demonstrate financial need, submit a portfolio of their work along with a personal statement, and interview in front of a panel of judges.
For more information on how to apply or contribute to the scholarship fund, please contact Ivy Tech Foundation department.
This scholarship not only keeps Douglas's legacy alive but also provides opportunities for aspiring photographers to pursue their dreams.
