Scholarship Program

It is with great sadness that we share that Bill Holladay passed away on Friday, March 22, 2024.

He was a wonderful friend and neighbor, leading the neighborhood association through several terms and setting up the scholarship program to support local high school artists as they pursue higher education. He is gone far too early. The details regarding visitation and funeral arrangements are in the link below

In lieu of flowers, the family encourages expressions of sympathy through donations to Visually Impaired Preschool Services (VIPS) or the St. James Court Art Show Scholarship Fund

Checks may be made in honor of Bill Holladay to the St James Charitable Fund and sent to President, St James Court Association c/o Cindee Rapp, 1453 St James Court, Louisville, KY 40208.

About

St. James Court Scholarship Foundation’s HS Scholarship Competition

Open to area HS students pursuing a degree in Fine Arts, the competition offers students a chance at a scholarship to attend the University of Louisville. This is the 52nd year since the first scholarship was awarded by the St. James Court Association and it continues to grow to help young adults achieve their goals in the arts.

The St. James Court Association established the scholarships in 1978 with one $1,000 art scholarship. In 1981 a $500 scholarship was added, and in 1985 a third scholarship was started thanks to contribution from the Fourth Street Association. Since 1978, more than half a million dollars in scholarships has been awarded to high school art students.
