More than a music lesson.
More than a music lesson.
“The true purpose of arts education is not necessarily to create more professional dancers or artists.
It’s to create more complete human beings who are critical thinkers, who have curious minds, who can lead productive lives.”
- Kelly Pollack
Join us on November 12 for an intimate evening of music, philanthropy and hearing about UpBeat from our students’ perspective!
Let’s Get UpBeat is a chance to come together this fall to celebrate the work our students and faculty do all throughout the year, and support arts and music education.
Support UpBeat!
Our mission at UpBeat Music and Art is to help students reach their full potential in life through music, and to provide this opportunity to as many students as possible. The generosity and support of our community helped UpBeat provide over 190 scholarships last year! Scholarships are provided, based on financial need, to ensure quality music education is accessible to all students.
Please consider donating to UpBeat so we can provide better resources and continue to award scholarships to students in our community!
