The application form for the Special Projects Fund is now online and available to download from this link. The Special Projects Fund is a discretionary fund administered by the Executive Council of the Music Graduate Students’ Society (MGSS). Grants from the Fund are intended for events and projects instigated by MGSS members that primarily benefit other music graduate students. Recent grants have supported a multi-day contemporary music workshop and a musical benefit for domestic violence survivors. Feel free to be creative with your ideas and plan something entirely new. We hope you apply, and we look forward to reading your application!
