Sunshine Coast Festival of the Performing Arts Membership
Founded in 1973, the volunteer-run Sunshine Coast Festival of the Performing Arts has grown from its initial two days of sessions to nearly three weeks, from 30 entries to over 400 in 2008!Incorporated as a non-profit society with charitable status, the Sunshine Coast Festival of the Performing Arts (SCFPA) promotes opportunities for performers of allages to compete and receive expert adjudication.
The Festival was founded to provide the opportunity for musicians to receive expert adjudication here on the Coast and to perform for appreciative audiences in our Community. Professional adjudicators review performances ranging from solos to community and school bands and choirs involving as many as 75 participants.
The Society and its many contributors help support outstanding performers on the Coast. With the generous support of community donors, 80 scholarships, trophies and medals are awarded annually to Festival participants.
Many students pursue post-secondary education with financial assistance from Festival awards. The Festival depend on contributions and memberships to support the awards program, pay adjudicators and rent venues.
Community volunteers also help organize events.
The Festival has come a long way since the first piano classes organized by Aletta Gilker and Mary Brooke to now include diverse performance disciplines.
