Family of Bezalel founder donates $10,000 to the arts academy

The family of the founder of the Bezalel Academy of Arts and Design in Jerusalem has donated $10,000 to the academy to be used for three full scholarships and a special prize to be awarded later this year. The family of Boris Shatz, who died in 1932 while fundraising on behalf of the Bezalel Academy, will be donating money to cover the tuition of three students as well as a prize for an outstanding project that focuses on community involvement. The Deane and Paul Shatz Prize for an Outstanding Project in the Field of Community Involvement will be presented at a ceremony during Hanukah for projects done last year.
