Thank You to Our 2020 Scholarship Jurors

In 2020, the Landscape Architecture Foundation (LAF) awarded over $100,000 to students through 13 different scholarships and fellowships established by generous sponsors. The recipients are chosen through a competitive application and selection process. LAF convenes juries to decide the winners of five awards.

We would like to sincerely thank everyone who served on a scholarship jury this year. The time and thoughtful review put forth by these jurors reflects their dedication to the profession, hope for the future, and commitment to supporting the next generation of designers!
