| The Boise Tuesday Musicale Awards use funds created through fundraising efforts to support young musicians in our community. Each spring, students are encouraged to participate in age-appropriate recitals for money to support their ongoing education, instrument maintenance, and all items related to their musical endeavors. Students can win up to $600 and the Award Auditions are open to all musicians who have participated in the Boise Tuesday Musicale Festivals and received a Superior rating in the same year. We are proud to give thousands of dollars each year and this event is a great opportunity for students to showcase their performances and talents. | Contact: Suzanne Clive clivepianostudio@gmail.com |
