SCHOLARSHIPS

MacDowell Scholarships

The MacDowell Music Club is dedicated to fostering the growth and development of young musicians. As part of our commitment, we offer scholarships for college to exceptional high school seniors in Stark County, Caroll, and Tuscarawas. These scholarships aim to provide financial support to students planning to major in music.

Applications for the scholarship program will be available in January of each year, with auditions in June.

If you have any questions or need further information about the application process, please feel free to contact Mark Thewes, our scholarship chairperson at Teemark@aol.com
