Amos Blynn Hargrave Memorial Scholarship Fund

Amos began his career as a luthier in 1974 at the Violin Making School of America in Salt Lake City. Although never boastful, his craftsmanship was awarded four gold medals from the Violin Society of America between 1980 and 1982 and was designated Hors Concours status in 1984. Amos’s skills and attention to detail were exceptional; he was highly sought after as a master restorer. He never rushed and nothing left his bench until he was satisfied. He was a teacher and mentor to many aspiring violin makers and restorers.
