corporate
Do you know engineers, scientists, CEOs and CFOs who spend their "off hours" playing in a garage band, doing digital design and photography, or jamming in a jazz combo?
Creativity and innovation, the cornerstones of Silicon Valley success, begin with music and arts education. That's why we not only see so many corporate people involved in our programs, but it is also why we see forward-thinking businesses supporting CSMA.
Tomorrow's work force is today's:
- child learning perspective and proportion in an Arts in Action class,
- teen playing back-up in a rock combo group, and
- student making connections between math and music theory.
Unfortunately, however, since California ranks 48th in the nation for arts funding, now more than ever, it is critical that CSMA be able to provide professional arts instruction and financial aid to children and families. In fact, CSMA's programs reach 40,000+ people of all ages annually, including 7,500+ children at approximately 30 schools throughout Silicon Valley.
Our Corporate Circle, a group of small, mid-sized and major corporate entities making donations of $1,000+, provides an excellent way to align your company's brand in support of the future of music and the arts in Silicon Valley. Your tax-deductible donation brings many benefits, including:
- Invitations to our annual donor appreciation party, Gala and other special events.
- Subscription to our Clef & Brush newsletter and advance mailings providing information about courses, concerts, exhibitions and cultural events.
- Recognition on our website, donor listings and prominently displayed donor wall.
- Premier, reserved seating for concerts and special events.
CSMA invites your company to support a place where the spark of creativity and innovation begins and continues for people of all ages. . . including that kid who might have been you (or one of your tech employees) playing music in the middle school band and who today is that guy still rocking to the beat in a CSMA jazz ensemble!
