The QYS was created in 2009 by the AMP Organization in order to lend a helping hand
to young LGBTQIA artists and musicians in hopes of encouraging them in their art and
empowering them as leaders of the queer community. This yearly scholarship award is
funded by the monies collected at AMP events like Cut&Paste Rock&Roll, a queer music
and art festival along with personal and private donations from neighbors, friends and
organizations who want to support.
The AMP Organization is dedicated to supporting the young people in southern
California that are passionate about music, art and community service. We celebrate
the talents and diversity of the LGBTQQIA people and through this scholarship hope to
inspire and enrich the next generation of leaders in the queer community.
Awards will be made on the basis of the involvement in the before mentioned music,
art and community categories within their personal and creative essays. In order to
include all students, please do not send transcripts or GPA information. Submissions and
all included materials will not be returned. Decisions of the Scholarship committee are
final. Completed applications, personal essays and all other information received will be
reviewed by a diverse committee of LGBTQIA musicians, artists and community leaders.
Good luck applicants!
