The Alaina Fisher Scholarship is for Greenville County High School graduating seniors who are pursuing a career in the arts. This is a one-time scholarship of $5,000. Deadline May 15th, 2026.
An immensely talented and loving artist from Greenville, Margaret Marie Alaina Fisher passed on October 24, 2022. Alaina was an alumna of the Ringling College of Art and Design in Sarasota, Florida. At the time of her death, she was a student at the Florence Academy of Art in Italy where she was enhancing her skills as a sculptor. Alaina showed remarkable promise as an artist, and her long-term goals were to teach art at the college level and to have her own studio. An avid animal lover, she left us far too early, and this Endowment is named in her memory.
