Starlight Instrument Scholarships
The Starlight Instrument Scholarship grew out of our original Velvet Cello Scholarship, which awarded cellos to three music students across New Mexico. We have expanded that idea to include an ever-changing variety of new and used instruments. Any New Mexico youth as well as school or community music programs serving musicans ages 18 and under may apply.
