Join us for our 7th Marathon Flute Concert at the new Schmitt Music in Bloomington!
This epic 6-hour flute concert is a fundraising event to benefit UMFA's flute student scholarship program.
Flutists of all ages and levels, from beginner students to professionals, are invited to perform for an enthusiastic audience and support their local flute community! We welcome all types of flute and all styles of music.
Let us know if you would like to volunteer to help with the event (any amount of time before, during, or after the concert is appreciated). Contact the volunteer coordinator at volunteer@umfaflutes.org.
Tax-deductible monetary & instrument donations to the scholarship program are accepted year-round.
Fundraising requirements
All flutist performers must pay a minimum $15 donation to the Scholarship Fund to perform (donation is paid via your registration fee) and at least 1 member in each group (or the soloist) must be an UMFA member. Non-flutist performers and accompanists are not required to be UMFA members, but must be registered to perform. They are encouraged but not required to make the $15 donation.
The minimum $15 donation per performer is paid via online registration. Additional donations can also be included in the registration.
Performers are encouraged to spread the word about the program and find donors to sponsor them in the performance. Larger individual or corporate donations are welcomed as well. There are opportunities for donor publicity and named scholarships.
