Youth Awards Build Futures
The Pima County Youth Art Award (PCYAA) is an awards program designed to identify, recognize, and encourage talented high school seniors within Pima County who demonstrate excellence in Dance, Music, Theater, Visual Arts, Media Arts or Literary Arts. Since 1999, the Tucson Pima Arts Council has partnered with Pima Community College and others to offer scholarships for high school seniors within Pima County to study at Pima Community College towards an Associates Degree in the Arts.
The scholarships are awarded each year at the Annual Crystal Apple Awards Luncheon hosted by the Metropolitan Education Commission.
