Since 1986, the William Hyde and Susan Benteen Irwin Scholarship Fund has become a public display of support and appreciation towards art and art's involvement in our culture. The artists chosen to receive an Irwin scholarship represent the artistic innovation and social exploration happening at UCSC. Individually, each artist is chosen because of their dedication to their own process and inspiration, but as a collective the Irwin scholars become a representative microcosm of the unique artistic movements happening at UCSC right now.
