WHAT IS PERFORMATHON?
Help support Bloomingdale School of Music’s Scholarship Program, the core of our mission to provide open access to quality music education!
Our 2-week fundraising campaign gives BSM students the chance to upload a personal performance video to their own fundraising page, share it with family and friends, and ask them to donate to BSM’s scholarship fund in honor of their performance.
Join us on May 15th for a culminating live event featuring student performance highlights. Hear from BSM students how studying music at our school has impacted their lives. Join the chat to celebrate BSM’s musical community from near and far! While we can’t feature every student’s performance at the live event, all the wonderful performance videos will live here on this platform for people to listen to and enjoy!
WHY WE DO PERFORMATHON
Access to music education for all has been our hallmark since our founding over 50 years ago. We work with our students to eliminate barriers to quality music education. Financial aid is key in many cases. Over the past decade alone, Bloomingdale has awarded more than $2 million in tuition assistance and aided thousands of families. Our annual Performathon is a way for students to share the music and raise funds to support their peers and help provide access to all.
