PRESS RELEASE
For Immediate Release
The Bluebird
Foundation Announces 2015
Audrey A. Lundeen Scholarship Application Process
The Bluebird Foundation is proud to
announce the awarding of the second annual Audrey A.
Lundeen Scholarship at the Christmas by the Lake CD
release party on Wednesday, November 18, 2015, at
the Clyde Iron Works Event Center.
It is the mission of the Bluebird
Foundation to be an advocate for area youth in the
performing arts and to create awareness of the power
of the arts to enhance self-esteem, to increase
understanding of others, and to improve academic
performance.
The scholarship is named to honor the
late Audrey A. Lundeen, the inspiration
for the Bluebird Foundation. Audrey was the mother
of Bluebird founder and President Tracy Lundeen.
The Audrey A. Lundeen Bluebird
Scholarship is intended for current high school
seniors who plan to pursue their interests in dance,
theater, or music (vocal or instrumental) in college
or some other advanced arts training beyond high
school. The student does not need to plan to major
in dance, theater, or music but must plan to do
advanced study/training to keep the arts a part of
their lives. A $1,000 scholarship will be awarded to
one senior to use for his/her advanced training in
the arts.
Application forms are available
here.
Completed forms may be submitted online to the same
address or mailed to: Bluebird Foundation c/o Tracy
Lundeen 2828 Piedmont Avenue Duluth, MN 55811 by
4:00 pm on October 30th, 2015.
Along with the completed application
form, applicants must also include a letter of
recommendation from a teacher or coach familiar with
the student’s artistic achievements and interests.
Recommendations may also be submitted online or
mailed to the address noted.
The Bluebird Foundation will also be
awarding their third annual individual music, dance,
and theater scholarship awards this spring.
Students, teachers, or coaches should
call 218-591-9004 with questions about the Bluebird
Foundation and its scholarship program.
The Bluebird Foundation
is a 501 (c)(3) with the Internal Revenue Service.
