Aaron Copland Fund for Music: Performance Program

The purpose of the Aaron Copland Fund for Music is to encourage and improve public knowledge and appreciation of contemporary American music. The Fund's Performance Program offers General Operating Support Grants for professional performing ensembles and presenting organizations with a history of substantial commitment to contemporary American music and with plans to continue that commitment. Project Support Grants are also provided for exceptionally important activities relating to contemporary American music proposed by professional performing ensembles and presenting organizations that do not normally feature contemporary American music in their programming. Grants generally range from $1,000 to $20,000. The application deadline is June 30, 2021.
