PASF assists young musicians in Santa Barbara County through an annual audition/competition process. The annual competition/concert is held in the spring. PASF also supports local arts organizations in their education outreach programs.
PASF awards range from a few hundred dollars (Encouragement Awards) to several thousand. Finalists, culled from the auditions, perform for major cash prizes. The public is welcome to attend the competition/concert free of charge. Fess Parker's Doubletree Resort in Santa Barbara hosts the event.
