Jack Kent Cooke Young Artists Class of 2026
Congratulations to the 2026 recipients of the Jack Kent Cooke Young Artist Award. Young Artists will receive an award of up to $10,000 and have been accepted to From the Top’s Learning and Media Lab Fellowship, which culminates in an appearance on From the Top’s NPR broadcast/podcast.
For 20 years, From the Top and The Jack Kent Cooke Foundation have awarded more than $4.4 million to exceptional young musicians with financial need, helping to offset some of the expensive costs of studying classical music at a high level.
The Jack Kent Cooke Young Artist Award program is currently accepting applications from pre-collegiate classical musicians through April 15th. Learn more and apply at fromthetop.org/apply.
