DEFFA is a non-profit membership organization whose goal is to nurture and promote the living traditions of folk music and dance in Maine.
AFTMD is delighted to be part of DEFFA’s annual scholarship offering. This scholarship supports one Maine-based DEFFA member in attending a summer camp/festival of their choosing, and is valued at $350. We are happy to partner with DEFFA so that a DEFFA scholarship recipient who chooses to attend AFTMD will receive the rest of their tuition costs from our own scholarship fund, resulting in a scholarship for full tuition.
DEFFA’s scholarship form can be found here. Their applications close on May 30 – however our own scholarship applications close on January 31, so anyone hoping to choose AFTMD as their program must apply by January 31.
