We are going to set up an account with the Community Foundation to provide scholarships to high school students who will attend UWSP to study music and to students who are pursuing degrees in music at UWSP. We also plan to help with music rental assistance.

The Jazz Festival adds a little more diversity to the area. The artists who are performing are groups that people from central Wisconsin won't usually get a chance to see. You would have to go to a larger city to see these national acts.

This event is geared toward families. We want families to feel comfortable bringing their kids to hear quality music.
