"When I was living in Mexico, I was struggling to fit anywhere. I couldn't find my place. I couldn't find a way to communicate and express who I was. And it wasn't until I discovered musical theatre and especially one of the very first shows I learned about, Jonathan Larson's 'Rent' that I felt that I belong somewhere." - Jaime Lozano

The Jonathan Larson Grant is an unconditional annual investment in individual talent. The grant is awarded to musical theatre composers, lyricists, and librettists, or writing teams, early in their career, to support artistic endeavors and safeguard long-term music writing careers.
