(ST. LEON, Ind.) – Do you know a local teenager who has a passion for music? 

The Southeastern Indiana Musician's Association (SEIMA) has an annual grant program that helps young musicians follow their dreams. 

Eligible applicants must be between 14 and 19-years old and live in Dearborn, Franklin, Ohio, Ripley or Switzerland counties. 

SEIMA will be given $2,000 to the top winners and $350 cash awards to all second place finishers this year. 

Participants will have to fill out an application and also submit a video performance. Cell phone video works just fine and it can be loaded to Youtube or another sharable video platform. Be sure to send the link with the application.
