Introducing the Purple Grandma Scholarship Program

Debbie, affectionately known as "Purple Grandma.”

In the world of music, there are individuals who leave an indelible mark on the lives of those they touch, and the Purple Grandma Scholarship Program is a testament to one such remarkable person. Named in loving memory of Debbie, the beloved mother of our artistic director, this scholarship program is a heartfelt tribute to a woman who embodied the essence of unwavering support, passion for music, and a deep love for the color purple.

Debbie, affectionately known as "Purple Grandma," was more than just a parent to her children; she was an ardent enthusiast of the arts. Her life was beautifully woven with threads of music, and her dedication to nurturing her children's musical talents was a source of inspiration for all who knew her. Sadly, in 2023, Debbie's journey was tragically cut short by pancreatic cancer, leaving a void that can never be filled.

Debbie's legacy, however, lives on through the Purple Grandma Scholarship Program. This initiative seeks to honor her memory by providing support and encouragement to young and aspiring musicians. It is an opportunity to pay forward the love and support she offered to her own children, extending it to the wider musical community.

Through this scholarship program, we aim to celebrate the life of Debbie, who left an indomitable legacy of musical appreciation and unwavering support. Her love for music, her affinity for the color purple, and her commitment to nurturing the talents of the next generation of musicians will continue to inspire and uplift aspiring artists for years to come. 💜
