Music For All

You have the opportunity to help us bring deserving young musicians to FSU this summer! The FSU Summer Music Camps provides summer music instruction to over 1550 elementary, middle, and high school students for five weeks each June and July. And though we currently support an average of 250 campers with over $20,000 in discounts, there are some students who need additional financial assistance to make a trip to camp possible.

Your tax-deductible gift will go directly toward covering the full cost of music camp for up to 10 students who have applied based on financial need and nominations from their music director. In addition, it will go toward supporting smaller discounts for dozens of students who have worked hard all year long and have earned assistance through All-State, FSU Tri-State, teacher recommendations, and other events.

In operation since 1942, the camps have provided an essential bridge in music education for students who receive little or no music instruction as part of the school curriculum; for students who wish to continue their music studies during the summer months; and for students looking to explore advanced instruction with the possibility to pursue collegiate studies after their high school graduation.

Our music camps provide students with opportunities, experiences, and memories that will stay with them for a lifetime. We hope that you will be part of this effort giving an exceptional summer experience to a student who has worked hard all year long.
