  Parents As Primary Teachers

Our Generous Supporters

At a time when the economy is struggling, it's easy to forget the importance of the arts, but you already know how valuable the arts are for critical thinking, other cognitive functions and overall well-being.

Consider sponsoring a local family in need of access to quality arts education.

In appreciation of your generosity, we will send you a musical instrument to mark the occasion of your gift.

A caxixi rattle is yours when you sponsor one class of Shake, Rattle & Roll.  A shekere shaker is our gift to you with your sponsorship of half a semester (3 classes) and a small djembe drum will be sent to you in the event you sponsor a full semester (6 classes).  Thank you!

You can give any other amount on our donations page!
