Announcing the Jane B. Wingard Scholarship Fund
We at 2nd Star are immeasurably sad to relay the passing of our founder, board member, and champion, Jane Wingard. Jane was a Founding Member of 2nd Star, as well as the company’s first President and Artistic Director. From her knack for mounting professional-level musicals to her masterful, award-winning sets, Jane's influence touched so many lives and will forever reach every aspect of 2nd Star. Jane taught art and theater for 30 years before retiring and becoming a professional scenic artist, so we thought it fitting to honor her in this way.
2nd Star’s Scholarship program is now named in honor of Jane, and is intended to:
• Encourage participation in theatre in general, and 2nd Star in particular.
• Reward individuals with a demonstrated record of active involvement in 2nd Star.
• Foster life-long appreciation for and support of community theatre.
Each year, 2nd Star volunteers can apply for one-time $500 scholarships. Applicants must be prospective or current full- or part-time college or trade school students.
