The James Terrill-Liesz Memorial Scholarship

At Wheaton Drama, we find it of utmost importance to support the future of the arts within our local community & beyond. As such, we are pleased to continue offering scholarships to local high school seniors who have been involved in and will continue to be involved with the arts. The James Terrill-Liesz Memorial Scholarship is given in memory of Wheaton Drama Lifetime Member, Jim Terrill-Liesz, who was both a teacher and active theatre member for decades.
