Interlochen Center for the Arts 2020 Annual Report

FINDING THEIR PASSION AT INTERLOCHEN

Michael and Anne Poon learned to love Interlochen as Camp and Academy parents. Their son Linus Poon attended Interlochen Arts Camp and then Interlochen Arts Academy, majoring in clarinet. Linus’ transformational experience was clear even continents away. This year, the Poons generously chose to pay this experience forward by establishing the Poon Family Scholarship for students attending Camp. “We feel that Linus’ three consecutive years of Interlochen summer camp experience prior to enrolling at the Academy was pivotal. That was when he found, and let us realize, that music is the passion of his life. We hope this scholarship will give other students like Linus the chance to find their own passion at Interlochen.” — Anne Poon

LIFELONG APPRECIATION OF THE ARTS

Helen and Fred Altman are longtime volunteers and ardent Interlochen supporters. This year, they created their second endowed scholarship at Interlochen, the Otto and Anna Altman Memorial Endowed Camp Scholarship for students studying theatre. This scholarship is in memory of Fred's parents, honoring their deep, lifelong appreciation of the arts. “Thank you for my generous scholarship. I have learned not to be afraid to show personality through dancing, learned how to pick a monologue, and improved my voice. Thank you for all these opportunities!” — Hannah, Musical Theatre Production, Camp, Age 16, Raleigh, N.C. / Otto and Anna Altman Memorial Endowed Camp Scholarship Recipient
