04-01-2026
El Sistema USA is launching Summer Now!, a new grant initiative for accelerated learning in summer programming. Grantees will address key barriers to summer programs with experimentation, innovation, and shared learning. Applications for 15 grants of $30,000, spread over two summers, are split between Strengthening Grants for existing programs and Launch Grants for new programs. The program is supported by the Peter Compo and Carol Larson Gift Fund. Apply by April 15.
Also, there is still time to register for El Sistema USA’s National Symposium, happening May 15–16 in Houston, TX. The Ensemble will be there too—come say hi!
