“Over the last eight years, we’ve had the great privilege of watching amazingly talented kids explore their interest in music. At the same time, we realize there are many more who have been unable to do the same because of financial difficulties,” said Managing Director Lori Donovan Roberts. “Being able to offer these scholarships is a true culmination of our work here.  And, we hope to continue the program and grow it each year.”

The deadline for entering will be April 15 and the winners will be announced at a special concert conducted by the staff of The Lesson Center at the Musikfest Café at SteelStacks on Saturday, April 21.  Full contest details are available on the TLC website at www.thelessoncenter.com/scholarships.html
