North Iowa Area Community College (NIACC) student Faith Etheredge of Nora Springs has been honored with a Visual Arts Award Scholarship of $500 for her artwork “Nala.”
Etheredge’s work was chosen from more than 3,200 entries for publication in the 31st edition of Nota Bene, Phi Theta Kappa’s national literary and visual arts honors anthology. It will be published later this fall, with printed copies available early next year.
Etheredge says, “I’m so grateful to Phi Theta Kappa for offering opportunities that celebrate creativity and artistry. My work as an artist is something that has always been deeply meaningful to me, so being recognized in this way is an incredible honor and an encouragement to continue pursuing my education and career in the arts.”
Nota Bene highlights the creative achievements of Phi Theta Kappa (PTK) members across the country. As a Nota Bene honoree, Etheredge is invited to present her work during the PTK Catalyst 2026 Educational Forum and will be recognized as part of the Parade of Scholars at the national event.
Phi Theta Kappa is the international honor society for two-year colleges including the NIACC chapter Alpha Psi Beta, recognizing students for academic excellence and leadership.
NIACC’s PTK chapter, Alpha Psi Beta, continues to celebrate student success on both local and national levels. For more information about Phi Theta Kappa on the NIACC campus, visit the PTK website at https://www.ptk.org/
