About Musician Scholarships

last revised
Sept 9, 2005

In order to make sure that musicians are not left out of the music/tech debate, we have created artist scholarships for this event. This way, many of the audience participants will be those who have the biggest stake in the policy debate – musicians themselves.

Thanks to some generous contributions from foundations, technology companies, sponsors, musician advocacy groups and lawfirms, 200 musicians were able to attend this Policy Summit for free.

Note that the scholarship only waives your registration fees.
FMC cannot cover travel or lodging expenses.

Here's a list of hotels and hostels in area.

How to Apply

If you're interested in applying for a scholarship next year, it's simple. It just involves filling out a webform and givin us a paragraph or two describing your musician background and explaining why you're interested in receiving a scholarship.

After you hit "submit", your info will be sent to us (you'll get a copy in your inbox as well), where it will be reviewed by our musician scholarship coordinator. She will then promptly inform you via email about the status of your application.

Help us help more musicians!

You can help us to have as diverse and enthusiastic audience as possible by letting other musicians, label mates, and songwriters know about the Policy Summit and the scholarship opportunities.
