Scholarships

The Folk School believes everyone should have access to our programs, regardless of financial circumstances. We use Sliding Scale Pricing so more people can participate at a cost that matches their circumstances, while sustaining our programs long-term. In you need additional support to be able to attend a Folk School class, we encourage you to apply for a scholarship. 

To apply, please send an email  to our Programs Coordinator with the following information: 

• The student’s full name 
• The parent or guardian’s full name, if the student is a minor
• Email address and phone number
• The name and dates of the class you’re requesting a scholarship for
• A brief statement describing the reason for your request and how this class will benefit you (or your child)

Incomplete applications may not be considered.

The scholarship program is supported in part by the generosity of the community. If you would like to make a donation to support the scholarship program, please visit our Donate to the Folk School page, and indicate that your gift is for scholarships. Thank you!
