Hello Everyone,

I am happy to announce that I have been accepted into both the Berwick Academy as a part of the Oregon Bach Festival and the American Bach Academy this summer! While I am thrilled to be a part of both these events, the cost of travel with a cello and the loss of income from taking a month off of work is significant, especially as an educator during the summer months.

My circumstances are made more difficult by having a less-than-ideal experience trying to acquire grants/scholarships as well as losing music work due to my identity as a Palestinian cellist. Because of this, I am putting on a GoFundMe campaign to help cover these financial costs. Any and all help would be greatly appreciated as these summer opportunities are incredibly valuable to my growth as a musician.

Thank you!
