Nominate a deserving Staff member for the Bernice Ash Memorial Award

Christian Wissmuller • Upfront • August 23, 2021
The Bernice Ash Memorial Award honors the remarkable life and legacy of Bernice Ash, a music retail visionary who spearheaded the expansion of the Sam Ash family-owned music stores and generously guided the careers of so many in our music industry.
This new award program will recognize recipients with a one-time, $5,000 grant for use in college-level or trade-related continuing studies. Recipients will also receive a travel stipend to attend The NAMM Show in Anaheim and a one-year mentorship through the NAMM Young Professionals organization.
The application deadline is September 30, 2021. Recipients will be notified by November 1, 2021, in time to make plans to attend The NAMM Show, January 20-23, 2022. To be considered for the award grant, applicants
  • Must be current employees of a NAMM member company,
  • Must be identified and nominated by that company’s owner or a manager as an emerging industry leader who is seeking professional development to further their music industry careers, and
  • Must be enrolled or have plans to enroll in professional development training (i.e. college degree or other certificate programs).
Opportunity is knocking! If there is someone working at your company who qualifies for and would benefit from receiving one of the first Bernice Ash Memorial Award grants, learn more here and help open that door for a deserving employee.
