The Celtic Cultural Alliance recently announced scholarships available to students studying a Celtic art such as music, dance, visual arts, literature or history.

The application deadline is June 30 and awards will be presented Sept. 24 at the annual Celtic Classic Highland Games and Festival Sept. 24 in Bethlehem.

CCA Executive Director Jayne Ann Recker explained these scholarships support the mission of the Celtic Cultural Alliance to promote and preserve the Celtic culture by encouraging students who have a committed interest in studying a Celtic discipline.

The scholarships are not based on an audition or financial need.
