1DAY4DU: Ann Levy Student Innovation Fund

Every May, 1DAY4DU encourages the DU community to make a difference in the lives of our students. From new faculty-led programs and initiatives that support students to a diverse range of research that impacts the wider world, your help allows us to further broaden the resources we can provide. 

Our goal will always be to care for our immediate and extended communities and for the organizations that mean something to us, individually and collectively, through these projects.

This year CAHSS has four projects that we are excited to include for 1DAY4DU 2022!

Ann Levy student Innovation Fund

The Ann Levy Student Innovation Fund is intended to support innovative projects by students in the Lamont School of Music.

Established in 2021 with a gift from the estate of Ann C Levy, the purpose of the fund is to provide grants to students in the Lamont School of Music who wish to pursue a project or activity that moves beyond the scope of coursework of applied study. Student scholars propose some type of creative, artistic or scholarly project that results in a distinctly innovative addition to the world of music.

Some examples of projects that meet this criterion are: commission and performance arrangement of new work; undertake a multidisciplinary project that incorporates cutting-edge technology or reimagines existing works of art in a new context; design and produce a collaborative, interdisciplinary, technology-driven, or entrepreneurial community outreach project that addresses the modern trends in concert marketing, promotion and/or design; produce a professional-quality concert off campus that addresses modern trends in concert formats; produce and market a professional-quality recording that is a distinctive contribution to today’s music environment; or undertake a scholarly project that addresses or advocates for innovative trends in music and society.
