New Student-Artist Application 2022 ALL Studios

Thank you for your interest in joining SAY Sí - please complete the following application thoughtfully. All confidential information must be completed to be eligible for consideration. SAY Sí is able to provide our programming for San Antonio’s creative youth at NO COST to the students because of our intensive fundraising efforts. Foundations and government grants require us to collect information on the students and families we serve. Please take the time to answer the following questions completely and candidly. SAY Sí‘s recruitment process is competitive and interviews/auditions are scheduled based on eligibility and number of open slots.
