Scholarships

BJW is dedicated to music education within our community. Each year, we award several scholarships (monetary grants) to music students who demonstrate interest, talent and ongoing participation in our workshops. These monetary awards are typically used to pay for lessons, school tuition, new instruments and equipment, transportation to school, etc.

Supported by an Arts in the Community Grant from the Arts Council of Kern!

Award Process

Each year, we will announce the application period for that year's scholarships. After all applications are received, the BJW Board of Directors reviews each application and selects a number of individuals demonstrating the interest, talent, participation and intentions that best fit with our program. Awards are presented in a special workshop ceremony.
