Katcher Family Aspen Music Festival Scholarship

NWS and longtime trustee Gerald Katcher provide one African American or Latinx high-school student the opportunity to attend the Aspen Music Festival and School. The annual Katcher Family Scholarship is awarded to a student identified by an application process facilitated by NWS and the Aspen Festival. Diversity, equity and inclusion is a high priority for the New World Symphony, and an essential part of the vision of a strong and secure future for classical music.
