THE GOLF OUTING: Saturday, August 16, 2025

The Detroit Stage Employees Union, IATSE Local 38, is proud to announce the 2025 "Jazz Goes to College" Scholarship Awards!

"JAZZ GOES TO COLLEGE" SCHOLARSHIPS, AWARDED AT THE DETROIT JAZZ FESTIVAL: SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 1, 2025.

Since 2019, The Detroit Jazz Festival Foundation and the Detroit Stage Employees Union, IATSE Local 38, have teamed up to reward Michigan college students studying Theatre and Music Technology programs.

So far, 18 Michigan undergrads have received scholarships totaling more than $52.000, and many have developed successful careers in Michigan's entertainment industry.

Their studies encompass the backstage and behind-the-scenes crafts that support performances and live events of all kinds. These stagecraft technicians, from carpenters to electricians, from lighting designers to script supervisors are all key to any successful live performance.
