Pro Musica supports the College of Musical Arts by inviting the participation of alumni, friends, parents and the Bowling Green community in a wide variety of musical events and by providing financial support for music students.

Your annual membership in Pro Musica provides funding for student-initiated Educational Travel projects. In addition, private gifts to the Pro Musica endowment provides annual funding for four scholarships and other awards.

These Pro Musica activities encourage student development at the College of Musical Arts. By participating in festivals and competitions domestically and internationally, students help advance the reputation of Bowling Green State University and the College of Musical Arts.
