​JazzWorks Scholarships

Picture
One of the ways JazzWorks keeps renewing itself is through scholarships, and we are fortunate to have some generous donors who help keep the scholarships alive. We can always use more!

Since its inception in 1994, JazzWorks has provided scholarships to enable promising high school jazz musicians to attend our three-day summer Jazz Camp. Recipients are chosen in collaboration with the Capital Region MusicFest in Ottawa and the MusicFest National Festival each spring. We currently award two annual Memorial Scholarships honouring former camp participants:
  • The Jerry Heath Memorial Scholarship is awarded annually to honour Jerry, a trombonist and dedicated, long-time JazzWorks participant, who passed away in 2012.
  • The Alun Davies Memorial Scholarship honours jazz bassist, composer and arranger Alun Davies, a dedicated jazz enthusiast and musician who passed away in 2008.​

In recent years, as a registered charity, JazzWorks has awarded additional scholarships, including some to adult musicians who might not otherwise be able to attend. Selections are made by the JazzWorks Scholarship Committee. A limited number of additional scholarships is awarded every year depending on available funds. 

How To Apply

 Applications for the JazzWorks MusicFest Scholarships (i.e. the Jerry Heath Memorial       Scholarship and the Alun Davies Memorial Scholarship) are made directly to the Music     Festivals through their annual program at crmf.on.ca and are open to senior high school   students of exceptional talent from grades 10 to 12.
