why give
Who needs art? You do.
The arts are immensely public and intensely personal. They give us the means to comprehend what was, make sense of what is, and imagine what might be. Through the arts, we are provoked, enlightened, and inspired.
Our goal is to create a community that sustains the creative life we all need.
As Silicon Valley's largest non-profit provider of arts education, CSMA fills a vital community need. We are a completely self-supporting organization providing award-winning arts-in-the-schools programs (Arts in Action, Music in Action), on-site music, visual and new media arts classes, camps and lessons, a generous financial aid program, and numerous free concerts and exhibitions. However, tuition fees and school contracts alone cannot cover the full cost of operations. Charitable donations are a critical component of our success.
Now more than ever, we need your help to further our mission of Arts for All and ensure that people of all financial circumstances have access to our high-quality programs.
Why give to CSMA? It's simple. CSMA has always been about people with the primary objective to secure the future of arts in the schools, train tomorrow's artists, build new audiences, recruit top faculty and educators, and enhance the quality of life in Silicon Valley.
