MAKEWAY is a new program to support and cultivate the growth of early-career Musical Creators by providing them with the resources and opportunities they need to take their careers to the next level. The program offers a week of rehearsals, workshops, and mentoring culminating in a public concert at St. George on the Grange.

Featuring guest conductor Maria Fuller, NMC’s Tapestry Women in Musical Leadership fellow for 2022-2023.

The MAKEWAY Call for Submissions is now closed. Thank you for an overwhelming response. We received a record number of applicants and we are looking forward to welcoming our next cohort of Composers in 2025.
