Eligibility Criteria
- Organizations can only apply and are awarded one time per year.
- Only music instruction programs that are part of 501(c)(3) organizations or public schools in the United States can apply. To qualify as a music instruction program, participants must be learning how to make music. Participants can be of any age. However, music appreciation or entertainment programs do not qualify, and the participants cannot be professional or career musicians. A qualified program must fit into one of these four categories:
- In-school music classes in which the students make music
- After-school music programs that are not run by the school
- Community music programs which offer music instruction to the community members
- Music therapy programs in which the participants make the music
Meet These 5 Criteria
- Individuals are not denied participation based on their musical abilities.
- If the participants pay to participate, the fee is considerably less than the fair market value.
- The program has been functioning for at least one year.
- Each program participant receives music instruction at least once a week for at least eight months per year (camps and workshops are not eligible).
- With or without a grant from Guitar Center Foundation, the organization is confident that the program will exist for the foreseeable future.
