Local History Scholarship

Due to COVID-19 restrictions, the Local History Scholarship will not be offered in 2021.
It is our sincerest hope that we will be able to award the scholarship in 2022.
Picture
This $1,000 award will recognize a Nyack High School Senior with an interest in History and Research. All college-bound seniors are eligible to apply. Candidates should complete an application and write an essay on topic related to local history. Students should use materials in the Local History Room of The Nyack Library to form the basis for their research. Submissions should represent original research, and a bibliography will be required. Interested students are encouraged to contact Local History Librarian Kat Sullivan to discuss topic selection or arrange research visits. Below you will find complete scholarship guidelines and the application.

Submissions are due by May 15, 2020.
