A limited number of Arcosanti Scholarships are available for those who may not have the financial resources to attend an Arcosanti Workshop, but have the motivation to contribute the project. The scholarships are for 11 weeks that include a Five-week workshop and 6-weeks of volunteering in the areas where we need assistance.
The Terms of the Scholarship are: You will come to Arcosanti one week before a scheduled workshop starts. You will volunteer for five days a week for eight weeks doing various assigned tasks based on our needs. During that time, you will be expected to adhere to the Arcosanti Policies and Procedures guidelines. You will receive assignments from the Workshop Coordinator, based on our priorities. If all assignments are performed satisfactorily and you have proven to be a positive contribution to the project and the community, you will finish your Five-week workshop with the next group. The workshop fee and the cost of room and board are waived for the duration (11 weeks total) of this program.
Application Procedure: Submit the following to the Workshop Coordinator:
Letter describing why you want to be at Arcosanti, specifically how does Arcosanti fit in with your long-term plans?
Resume
3 letters of recommendation
Because the Arcosanti Scholarship program is on-going, there is no application deadline. However, we are only able to grant one scholarship per workshop.
