Pamela Campau Scholarship for the Arts
Information Sheet
Pam was part of the Pinckney Players’ family for many years. In addition to being a talented
actress who could sing and dance, she was also a gifted painter who for many years painted our
Pinckney Players’ sets. She touched so many of us with her endless smile and positive outlook on
life. In May 2009, in her memory, we started the Scholarship for the Arts.
In the fourth year of Pinckney Players’ Scholarship for the Arts, one (1) scholarship will be
awarded to high school senior who intends to pursue a career related to acting. A $500 college
scholarship will be presented to a high school senior that has been selected in accordance to the
