Berklee Lollapalooza Endowed Scholarship Announced |
The Berklee Lollapalooza Endowed Scholarship is a four-year, full tuition scholarship that will be awarded annually to a talented musician in financial need. This scholarship is the cornerstone of a new multi-faceted partnership between Lollapalooza and Berklee developed by Music Business/Management Professor, Jeff Dorenfeld and festival producer, C3 Presents. It is also the first first educational initiative of its kind for Lollapalooza. The collaboration also resulted in a performance slot at the 2011 festival for Berklee alumna singer-songwriter Julia Easterlin, internships at Kidzapalooza for six Berklee students, and the Berklee Lollapalooza Five-Week Scholarship, awarded to a Chicago teen attending the college's summer performance program.
The scholarship is being endowed by Goldman Sachs Gives, a donor-advised fund. The first recipient will be named at Lollapalooza 2012 and will be selected through Berklee's auditions and interviews conducted during the Berklee World Tour.
The Berklee Lollapalooza Endowed Scholarship was established at the recommendation of Fran Bermanzohn, a Berklee Trustee. Bermanzohn is Managing Director and Deputy General Counsel of Goldman Sachs. Read more...
