The Euclid Art Association awarded a $600 scholarship to Sireniti Brown, who graduates from Euclid High School in 2025. The Margaret E. Hain Art Scholarship is named after a Euclid High School art teacher who was the founder and first president of the EAA in 1958. The scholarship is given to a graduating senior who has taken art classes and will continue this study in the next academic year.

Sireniti's artwork showed nice blending of color and smooth transitions, as seen in her seascape. Her other art entries showed nice use of space, dark-to-light and color balance. Sireniti chose painting as her course of study. "I've always loved to paint and art in general since I was little." She is fascinated by the many wonderful colors and different styles to try. For her, painting is a way to escape reality when things get stressful. She hopes that in the future her "art can also make someone else feel as though they can be at ease when life starts to become a little much". She hopes to inspire others to create their own work of art.

EAA President, Rozenia Cunningham presented a congratulatory letter along with a certificate and check to Sireniti at the Euclid High School senior awards ceremony on May 13.

Along with the cash award of $600, Sireniti was given full membership in the Euclid Art Association for the 2025-2026 season. Membership includes eligibility to participate in fine art shows, as well as monthly meetings, featuring demonstrations by local artists, and a personal webpage on the Euclid Art website, www.euclidart.com.
