Don fonds de bourse

Known for the high quality of its teaching staff recruited from top institutions here and abroad, the Domaine Forget Academy of Music and Dance draws students from all over the globe. Over more than 30 years, the Academy has welcomed more than 12,000 young people. Its teaching formula is unique and distinctive. 

Following the example of the majority of major teaching institutions, in 1998, Domaine Forget’s Board of Directors established a scholarship fund. In the competitive Canadian and North-American setting, the scholarship fund constitutes a decisive advantage for the Academy, as it allows the new generation of artistic talent to receive high-level training in our region.

The scholarship fund is essential to Domaine Forget and is based on a number of objectives:

• To attract promising young talent to Domaine Forget;
• To maintain and increase capacity for the upcoming generation;
• To maintain cultural diversity among students, enhancing the Academy’s reputation;
• To facilitate access to the Academy for talented young artists who, otherwise, would not have the necessary financial means.

Since its creation, thanks to the contributions of generous donors, private foundations, and the Canadian government (through an Economic Development Canada program), almost $1.5M has been gathered for the scholarship fund. As requests for financial assistance are on the increase and Domaine Forget would like to help a larger number of its students, the scholarship fund must also be increased.

All those who wish to help young musicians and dancers on their way to a professional career are urged to support Domaine Forget’s important training mission by donating to the scholarship fund. Another way of contributing is through the benefit concert that is held during the International Festival and which targets the fund.

As a recognized charitable organization, Domaine Forget can issue receipts for income tax purposes in the case of donations.
