PERFORMING ARTS SCHOLARSHIPS
Due to economic challenges, the FAE Performing Arts Scholarship Program has been put on hiatus. We hope to reinstate it soon.
Please see 2010-2011 FAE Performing Arts Scholarship Guidelines for an overview of the program. Scholarships are not available this year.
FAE Performing Arts Scholarship Program is designed to assist Southern California high school seniors who wish to pursue a career in dance, music, and theatre. Whether their goal is to work on stage, become teachers, or embark in other performing arts related careers, our scholarships support endeavors that bring the arts into the community.
Scholarships are offered in five categories: Classical Voice, Dance, Drama, Instrumental Music, and Musical Theatre (voice).
