Besides helping USITT launch the Jay O. Glerum Rigging Masterclasses held in Denver in June, the family of the late Jay Glerum also donated to a Travel Grant fund to help teachers attending the masterclasses with travel for the two-day event. USITT’s Fellows generously agreed to match contributions to the fund, allowing USITT to provide grants of $1,000 to six attendees this year.
“I am honored to have received the grant that made my attendance possible. Without the grant, I would not have been able to make it to Denver and meet such a diverse and experienced group of individuals at this very educational and informative course.”
