Terry Flores

My name is Terry Flores and I am an Oberlin artist. I received my BA degree from Kent State University and worked as an artist/designer for American Greetings for 29 years. I have served on the board of directors of The Art House Inc. I have exhibited my work at FAVA, the Beck Center for the Arts, Spaces Gallery, and at the Lorain Arts Council Gallery. I work in a variety of media, and enjoy doing community arts, and Latino inspired art. I have been the project director/artist for the Oberlin Public Library Chalk Walk mural for many years including the 2024 theme, Amazing Women.

scholarships & aid

FAVA reviews and considers all application for scholarship assistance. While we may not be able to provide a complete scholarship to all those who request it, we are committed to making our classes available to as many people as possible – regardless of individual financial circumstances. For this reason, it is important that all scholarship requests are received well in advance of the class starting date, so we may allocate our available funds accordingly. We may consider any of the following factors when determining eligibility for scholarships:

  • Annual family income
  • Individual or special circumstances
  • Whether the applicant qualifies for the National Free/Reduced Price School Lunch program
    (for students age 18 & younger)


**FAVA also encourages applicants to consider partial scholarship assistance, in which case the student only pays some portion of the class tuition.

All information will be kept confidential and will be used solely to determine the amount of scholarship assistance to be provided.
