GTCYS understands that many public school music programs throughout our community have limited resources to serve their students. To help play it forward, GTCYS will award a $1,000 first-time grant to a public school orchestra or band program in the Twin Cities this spring. The grant can be used for instruments, music, supplies, or other non-personnel expenses to benefit students in the recipient’s program. Nominations for this year’s grant are now closed, and the recipient will be announced at the Orchestrating Opportunities Benefit.
