<p>I don’t think of certain festivals as being for high schoolers, though there is no stated age limit: Atlantic is one, Bowdoin is another, for example… more for “emerging and established” composers…Bowdoin is on the list though. Atlantic is only 4 years old so maybe the list has been around for a bit. I think it is a pretty good collection of programs and it does come out of Cleveland. I don’t know that much about opportunities in the Midwest! Hope it helps some.</p>
