Cyrus Artisan Rugs Scholarship Grant

In order to see the full potential of artisan rugs in living spaces, we believe it's important to collaborate with interior designers. There are people who need individuals to help them decorate their homes. Some have no clue where to begin when designing a room, while others might not have the time to plan things out. Interior designers are able to create design plans, piece together the various elements, utilize unique resources, and work within assigned budgets. In other words, they're trained to make other people's visions come to life.

Since we are committed to championing the finest creative minds, Cyrus Artisan Rugs is offering a scholarship program that will benefit future interior designers. We want to support incoming and current interior design students so that they can pursue their passion for beautifying the spaces people live and work in.
