About the Foundation

The Amphion Foundation, Inc., founded in 1987, was established to encourage the performance of contemporary concert music, particularly by American composers, through support to performing and presenting organizations that have demonstrated sustained artistic excellence, in addition to service organizations. The Foundation’s mission is carried out through its grant program.

IMPORTANT!  Please note that the Foundation's grant-making procedures have changed significantly. Before applying to the 2012 grant program, please read the revised program guidelines carefully, especially regarding how to apply, new deadlines and eligibility. Note that many organizations must first submit a letter of intent to apply to the program before being invited to apply.
