Zachary Watson Memorial Education Fellowship
Gray Area's Zachary Watson Memorial Education Fellowship is an annual award, given in memory of creative coder Zachary Watson, to an artist using technology in their work who is looking to further their higher education. Each year on March 14, Pi Day, one promising young artist or technologist is recognized. The page's description calls the award a $5,000 grant, and its body text lists free and unrestricted access to Gray Area's workshops and intensive certification programs plus an honorary scholarship to Gray Area's Artist Incubator for a full year. Applications go through an Airtable form linked on the page. The fellowship is held and administered by Gray Area, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, and friends and family continue to support it. The page lists a 2026 recipient.
