Evelyn Matthies
The Evelyn Matthies Art Scholarship Fund was established anonymously. Evelyn taught art at CLC (BBC) from 1966-1995. She serves on the State Art Board and was instrumental in establishing The Crossings Arts Alliance. Evelyn has her own art studio and gallery: The Porthole Gallery. In the past, Matthies has donated her artwork to a raffle, which the proceeds went toward a CLC scholarship fund.
Impact
“Because of your kind actions, I am able to continue my education towards my many goals. Through receiving my education, I hope to become successful in my journey within the world of Film and Television. Having people like you, that show your support for a field that is constantly being pushed down, gives determined dreamers like me a fighting chance. Thank you for that.”
