The IBMA International Band Performance Grant - led by the generous matching donation of Paul and Alys Schiminger - seeks to raise matching funds up to $50,000 and plans award grants of financial assistance to one or more selected international bands to participate and perform at this year's IBMA World of Bluegrass, September 27 - October 1, 2022. The goal of the grant program is to build a system of permanent funding to assist international bands for many years in the future.
