Scholarships

Ceol Aneas Scholarship

A generous donation provided by the Hugo Charitable Trust allows us to offer a limited number of full and/or tuition-only scholarships to Ceol Aneas.

A full scholarship will provide transportation to Nelson (for the recipient and parent/guardian if applicable), accommodation, and tuition for Ceol Aneas on Queen’s Birthday weekend.

The scholarship is open to New Zealand residents between 12 and 25 who play an instrument taught at Ceol Aneas, and is able to play at a standard that would benefit from the classes at Ceol Aneas. Young scholarship applicants who are under 18 must be accompanied to Nelson Ceol Aneas by a parent or guardian. The parent/guardian would not need to attend the classes, but would be responsible for their dependent at other times.

Scholarships will be awarded on the basis of the potential of the applicant to derive most benefit from the tuition at a Ceol Aneas but may not otherwise be able to attend for financial reasons.

The final decision is made by the Ceol Aneas committee.
