Many students are passionate about the arts but aren’t met with the support they need to continue their creative journeys.
As the costs of a college education continue to soar, many parents, counselors, and teachers dissuade students from pursuing creative fields due to the competitive nature of artistic industries. However, the best way to flourish during your academic journey and to find fulfillment in a career is to pursue your dreams.
This scholarship aims to support students who are passionate about music and pursuing higher education in the field.
Any high school student who is on an artistic journey and majoring in music may apply for this scholarship opportunity.
To apply, tell us how being involved in the arts has affected your life and what inspired you to continue pursuing the field.
