Music in the Mountains Goes to School is offering Shining Star Scholarships to student musicians in the Durango area.
These scholarships, sponsored by Bank of Colorado, are designed to help defray the cost of private music lessons for students who wish to further develop their musical skills or attend local summer music camps. Financial need is important for awarding these scholarships, but it is not the only criterion.
To apply, visit www.musicinthemountains.com and click “Education.” Applications are also available on the Durango School District 9-R partnership page or for pick up at Bank of Colorado, 1199 Main Ave.
The deadline to apply is Oct. 31. For more information, call Sean Mallow at 385-6820 or email smallow@musicinthemountains.com.
