Canadian Friends of Interlochen

Canadian Friends of Interlochen supports the Interlochen Center for the Arts in Michigan, one of North America's premier arts education institutions. The organization raises funds from donors across Canada, including Toronto and the GTA, to provide scholarships and programming that enable Canadian students to attend Interlochen's summer camps and year-round academy. Students gain intensive training in music, theatre, visual arts, dance, and film from accomplished artists and educators. The scholarships remove financial barriers for talented young people who might otherwise lack access to this level of arts instruction. By connecting Canadian youth with world-class artistic mentorship and peer communities, Canadian Friends of Interlochen helps develop the next generation of artists and arts leaders.
