Sponsor a Student

The Ann S. Bowers Young Artist Fund provides essential support for the more than forty talented young musicians who participate in Music@Menlo’s Chamber Music Institute each summer. Contributors to this fund nourish the future of classical music by enabling Music@Menlo to offer an inspiring and rigorous learning environment, a world-class roster of artist-faculty members, and an exceptional student-faculty ratio. They also play a critical role in the lives of these extraordinary young artists by helping them realize their lifelong personal and professional ambitions.

Through the support of the Ann S. Bowers Young Artist Fund, all artists from Music@Menlo’s esteemed International Program (ages twenty through twenty-nine) are able to participate in the Institute’s programs at no cost with fully sponsored fellowships. Music@Menlo is also able to offer all Young Performers Program participants (ages ten through nineteen) a subsidized tuition. And, this season, through the generosity of the many contributors to the Young Artist Fund, all Young Performers Program participants who applied for merit scholarship or financial aid received partial or full assistance.

To learn more about sponsoring a young artist in the Chamber Music Institute, please contact Edward Sweeney, Executive Director, at 650-330-2030 or edward@musicatmenlo.org.
