The Cre8sian Project was founded as a way to give back to the community while empowering Asian women around the world by developing female superhero characters that envelop qualities of a strong, superhero-like woman: Determination, Concentration, Motivation, and Education. This brand is about recognizing diversity in the arts, emphasizing that representation matters, and empowering women in the arts and beyond!
The Cre8sian Project Scholarships, through Positively Arts (a 501c3 non profit) and in partnership with “In Her Purpose,” are open to female and female identifying high school and middle school students attending public, private, or home school with an interest in the arts, have some asian heritage, and live in Clark County. Students who are involved in any aspect of the arts, not just performance, are encouraged to apply. This can include writers, photographers, filmmakers, technical stage crew (carpentry, props, lighting, automation, audio, set design, stage managers), artists, graphic designers, directors, acrobats, singers, dancers, musicians, composers, arrangers, etc.
Interested students should submit:
- Your journey in the arts and why the arts are important to you
- Describe any short term or long term goals or plans you have (even if you do not plan to pursue a career in the arts)
- Talk about any volunteer or community work you have done in the past year and why it is meaningful to you
- Talk about a challenge you encountered, and how you overcame it
- How your Asian heritage has influenced your life
** You do not necessarily need to write lengthy answers to all of these questions if some do not apply to you as much as others, but please feel free to elaborate more on the ones that do.
***Essays must be submitted as PDF’s NOT shared google docs!!
Students will be judged on their skills, initiative, involvement in their community, and dedication to their artform.

The main high school winners will be required to participate in five activities with Positively Arts throughout the school year. These requirements may be fulfilled virtually (as opposed to in person events) or in person, depending on your comfort level, so that we may maintain the highest safety standards possible. Activities may include participating in the Happy Note Challenge, Happy Dance Videos, Thank You Videos, script writing, designing graphics for various events, etc, OR the student may choose to create their own community project to work with Positively Arts which may fulfill some or all of the activity requirements, as long as it is in line with Positively Arts’s principles, which uses the arts to empower, inspire, educate, and heal, and gets approval from Pilita Simpson and Angela Chan.
All winners (including the additional scholarship winners) will be required to participate in an event in the spring with Positively Arts that focuses on original works and pieces by Cre8sian Project winners!
