Alex Rathgeber Performing Artist Scholarship
The Alex Rathgeber Performing Artist Scholarship was introduced in 2019 to encourage and support young performing artists from around Alex's hometown of Horsham and the local Wimmera community. The scholarship is designed to assist young performers in the development of their skills, confidence, and artistry.
Awarded at the RM Showcase concert event, it complements the Richard Morris Memorial Scholarship which honours the wonderful life and legacy of Wimmera performing arts supporter and facilitator, the late Richard Morris.
In 2023, the recipient is to be awarded a prize of $1000 to support their training and development, and the chance to perform at the RM Showcase concert at Horsham Town Hall Performing Arts Centre on Saturday 18th November 2023.
