ENDOWED SCHOLARSHIPS Accelerate Artists’ Potential
A scholarship is an investment in potential. Each year, more than 400 of our Academy students and 900 of our Camp students receive scholarships. Of those, 294 young artists had the opportunity to experience Interlochen because a generous donor supported their potential via an endowed scholarship. Endowed scholarships have permanent funding provided by donors. They ensure that current and future generations will have the opportunity to find their passion and purpose at Interlochen. This year, 12 new scholarship endowments were created through new gifts. We are thankful for the giving spirit of these donors including: • Romulus Portwood , who chose to honor his late wife and her family's connection to Interlochen with the Lucas-Portwood Family Camp Scholarship. • George and Miette Michie , who celebrate their fathers' legacies at Interlochen and beyond with the Huybrechts-Michie Endowed Camp Scholarship. • Camp alumnus Nathan and Christie Stark , current Academy parents whose sons have attended both Camp and Academy. Their strong family connection to Interlochen led Nathan and Christie to establish the Stark Family Endowed Camp Scholarship. • Roger and Ann Looyenga , who support an Academy scholarship with first preference for piano students through the Looyenga Family Endowed Academy Scholarship.
