Summer Study Grants:
Each year IMADA awards a number of Summer Study Grants to Ipswich High School and Ipswich Middle School students.

Scholarships:
Each year IMADA awards a number of merit-based college scholarships to graduating Ipswich High School seniors. Students must have participated in one or more of the arts programs offered through the Ipswich Public Schools, been accepted at an institution of higher learning, and enroll in the fall following their senior year of high school. The Robin Silverman award is reserved for an individual who plans to pursue their art in college.

The Concert Closet:
IMADA gathers and shares gently used concert clothing and shoes as a free service to our community. Attire for students grades 4 through 12 is available. This is a free service. We welcome donations.
