Jonathon Heyward is pictured below receiving a surprise $1,000 scholarship from the CSOL. Presenting the scholarship award are Becky Hilstad, VP Education and Martin Bowen on the stage of the Charleston County School of the Arts when Jonathon had returned home to Charleston to conduct his alma mater's orchestra on May 11.
Jonathon now attends the Boston Conservatory of Music where he is a music major and will continue these studies there as a sophomore in the fall. Funding for the scholarship came from the Johanna Bowen memorial scholarship fund. It was awarded to him based on his continued excellence in the study of musical performance.
Becky Hilstad and Martin Bowen, husband of Johanna Bowen who passed away in January of this year, are seen with Jonathon.
