Coronavirus Update

Techne Music continues to monitor the Coronavirus situation, which changes daily. We are well aware that it is difficult to plan ahead with so much uncertainty. With this in mind, Techne is implementing the following two policies for 2020:

1. All application fees are being waived. If you already paid an application fee, you will receive a refund.
2. No tuition or housing payment will be due until the first day of the festival (June 13, 2020)

We realize that for many of you, travel plans still need to be made if you are coming from a long distance. With so much uncertainty, we recommend not purchasing any airfare until after April 15th, and to contact Techne at TechneMusicCamp@gmail.com before purchasing.

Techne wishes all of you safety and good health as we continue to face this issue together.

Sincerely,
Timothy Schwarz, Director of Techne Music Festival
