Scholarships – Scholarships for Women – Scholarships

It’s the year of the woman or so it has been said. Jane Austen was passionate about her work and because she was. she produced 6 novels in her short life of 41 years. During her lifetime, women didn’t have careers. And in the Regency Era there were certain things that were appropriate for Women.

Thank goodness mankind and womankind have evolved and there are few things that women can’t pursue today. So, to help women pursue their passion, the proceeds of the Jane Austen Fest will provide scholarships for women. We want to see women follow their passion and help them succeed. Women who live in Florida, and are interested in literature, history, fashion and/or authorship are eligible.

Please contact us if interested.

“It isn’t what we say or think that defines us, but what we do.” Jane Austen
