Winners will be selected on the basis of Center Stage Jackson’s established scoring policy, a copy of which is available upon request. Ties will be broken using a blind random drawing.  Scholarship winners will be announced at the Center Stage Jackson Annual Meeting on August 16, 2016.

The Center Stage Jackson Scholarship Fund is an independent, self supporting project which does not use funds from any ongoing Center Stage Jackson accounts but relies entirely on donations which are explicitly designated for the Center Stage Jackson Scholarship Fund. Money for scholarships comes from individual contributions designated for this project.  If you would like to donate to this worthy cause, please contact Chuck Thor at (517) 414-8652.
