What scholarships/grants are available to a high-school student who wants to go on a 10 day trip to France and Italy to study art?

Asked by mackyish (50points) September 17th, 2011

I go to a governor’s school for international studies, and I have the opportunity to go on a 10 day trip through Italy and France to see The Vatican Museum, The Sistine Chapel, Raphael’s School of Athens, St. Peter’s Basilica, Michelangelo’s Pieta,The Colosseum, The Uffizi Museum, Notre Dame, the Louvre, Palace of Versailles, Eiffel Tower, and so so so much more.

And during that time I could also attend multiple workshops and this is just SUCH a great opportunity and I want to go sooo badly. I have such a passion for art and art history, so this is a chance of a lifetime for me.

My dilemma, however, is the cost. It’s over $3,000. Does anyone have any knowledge of scholarships/grants that I could be eligible for at 16 years old? Also, any ideas for organizations, companies, etc that might be interested in sponsoring me? (Also, odd jobs like leaf-raking and babysitting?) Thank you so so much.
