BIPOC Membership Scholarship
ILEA Minneapolis-St. Paul is pleased to offer a membership scholarship opportunity for a full year’s membership with the Minneapolis-St. Paul Chapter.
2025 Scholarship opening soon!
The primary objective of this application form is not to evaluate candidates based on their grammatical or typographical proficiency, but rather to assess the level of enthusiasm and involvement that applicants exhibit towards our local chapter. It is our aim to ensure that the resources allocated for this sponsorship are granted to individuals who recognize that active participation in the ILEA community enhances the overall value derived. It is important to note that the scholarship does not entail mandatory attendance requirements; however, we strongly encourage applicants to participate in as many programs, meetings, and events as possible to fully capitalize on the benefits of ILEA-MSP membership.
This scholarship aims to improve access to association membership for any current or emerging talent in the live events industry.
This year (2024-2025) eligibility is being offered exclusively to BIPOC event professionals as ILEA MSP aims to ensure it is continuing to work on improving access and inclusion to the resources we have available within our association and to amplify perspectives and voices that typically go unrepresented in the Twin Cities events community.
