The Fund was set up in 1980 with a donation of $10 million
from The Hong Kong Jockey Club (the Jockey Club) for the promotion
and development of music and dance. It is a non-statutory
trust fund, administered by a Board of Trustees. In 1994,
the Jockey Club injected a further $22 million into the Fund

of fund manager of the Fund. Scholarships are awarded once

Hong Kong. The scholarships enable exceptionally talented
candidates to pursue integrated programmes of post-diploma

music or dance at world-renowned institutions or to undertake
less formal studies, projects or creative work outside Hong
Kong.
