PNF Scholarship at the Community Music Center
In 2001, PNF established a scholarship for young local musicians,
in conjunction with the Community Music Center.
One musician was selected to receive a year's worth of weekly, private,
half hour lessons, in the instrument of his or her choice.
We are currently in the process of considering
continuing the process for 2002. More info as it is available.
Check back here for more information about these programs as our efforts
get underway.
