Hughes & Jones Music Fund Grant
In 2006, Charles L. Hughes and Alvin C. Jones created the Hughes & Jones Music Fund with the sole purpose of funding musical instruments to Nevada’s public schools. The goal was to make musical instruments available to students who might not otherwise be able to afford them and enable local schools to maintain the ownership for student use for years. By this process school music programs would remain strong and vital, and community events would have the benefit of local student talent.
The Hughes & Jones Music Fund grant cycles are:
• Nevada rural counties in the spring of odd years
• Clark and Washoe counties in the spring of even years
Proposal Deadline is March 13, 2024 by 5:00PM.
