The Kennedy Center/National Symphony Orchestra Summer Music Institute is a 4-week summer music program at the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts in Washington, DC, for student instrumentalists.  The program is designed for serious music students.  Each student accepted into the Program attends on full scholarship, which includes the following benefits: housing, food allowance, and local transportation during their stay in our Nation's Capital. (Round-trip transportation to and from Washington, DC, is not included.)

Give a contribution to the Grant Clark Fund!

The UAA MENC chapter is collecting contributions from people in honor of
Grant.  It is true that an endowed scholarship can't be created until there
is 10, 000, so we decided to go through MENC since they've been in the
process of raising money to start a scholarship for a few years now.

So, if people who knew Grant want to contribute, they may write a check,
made out to UAA MENC, and send it in care of Chris Sweeneyto:

UAA - Music Department

3211 Providence Drive

Anchorage, AK  99508.
