Aaron Copland Fund for Music: Supplemental Program

In keeping with his lifelong devotion to contemporary music, Aaron Copland created the Aaron Copland Fund for Music. The Fund’s purpose is to encourage and improve public knowledge and appreciation of contemporary American music. The Supplemental Program’s objective is to support non-profit organizations that have a history of substantial commitment to contemporary American music but whose needs are not addressed by the Fund’s programs of support for performing organizations and recording projects, such as presenters and music service organizations. Organizations whose principal function is to support a specific performing ensemble should apply to the Performing Ensembles Program.

Amount: Not provided.

Eligibility: Non-profit organizations that have a history of substantial commitment to contemporary American music but whose needs are not addressed by the Fund’s programs of support for performing organizations and recording projects, such as presenters, festivals, and music service organizations (including education/residency, library/archive, and radio/TV). Projects that are part of the curriculum of an educational institution are not eligible for support. Organizations must have been in existence for at least two years at the time of application. Presenters, or organizations that are otherwise involved with performances, must have presented two full seasons prior to the season for which support is requested.
