Eight Osborne Scholars. One summer.

The Mary G. and G. Harold Osborne Endowed Scholarship is awarded annually to a select group of outstanding students majoring in dance, cinema, music, theatre, or the visual arts. It allows students to explore their craft in an immersive way.
This scholarship was made possible by Dr. William N. Osborne, who joined Denison in 1961 and retired as a Distinguished Professor of Fine Arts in 2003. The scholarship honors his parents, Mary G. and G. Harold Osborne.
From brightening the streets of Newark, Ohio, to creating socially impactful stories, or performing on a stage overseas, see how eight Osborne Scholars spent last summer.
