With the launch of the Sage Studio scholarship initiative, Raue Center's educational programming has become accessible to an ever-broadening community and audience. There are more than 200 affordable tuition options available to the public.

Additional seed funding of the Sage Studio program has been provided by Susen H. and James C. Berg, longtime supporters of Raue Center.
