• • Student Membership Subsidy

    The Eugene Chapter of the American Guild of Organists sees the promotion and
    fostering of interest in the organ amongst our younger musicians as integral to our
    mission. As such, the Chapter seeks to assist those interested in membership in the
    Guild with a $25 subsidy (50%) towards the student rate, which includes a printed
    copy of The American Organist magazine. Applicants must reside or study within the
    geographical proximity of the Eugene Chapter and be 29 years of age or younger.
    Applications may be received, reviewed, and stipends granted anytime, with a
    priority deadline of August 1 to receive a full year’s subscription to the magazine.
