St. Peter’s Community Arts Academy is a young organization that bridges a group of previously established programs reconfigured under the SPCAA umbrella. We have gotten off to a vibrant and promising start during the 2005-06 year. Our dedicated faculty, staff, and board are working hard to ensure the continued success of the Academy.  However, tuition fees cover only a portion of our annual expenses. Additionally, we offer scholarship programs and financial aid to some of our students. The Academy is committed to making its programs available to all youth of our community and makes every effort to ensure that no child will be denied access because the family cannot afford tuition, an instrument, or supplies. With many other worthy causes competing for limited resources at the local and state level, the Academy is challenged in its attempt to make up the difference between our income and expenses.

Your gift to the St. Peters Community Arts Academy will allow us to bridge the gap and ensure that our programs continue to serve everyone in the community: participants and patrons, children and adults alike.  We live in a community that values the arts; let’s keep the arts alive by offering enrichment and opportunity through our youth!

Make a gift in honor or memory of a friend or family member
Paying tribute to a loved one to honor a lifecycle event or as a memorial contribution can be an especially meaningful way of giving.

Consider a Gift-in-Kind
As a start-up organization we have many studio classroom and office needs. Do you have any furniture, office supplies, recording equipment, musical instruments—including old but serviceable violins and pianos? Is there anything else you think we might need? Please call the SPCAA office—we will be happy to discuss your offer and provide you with a receipt for a charitable contribution to St. Peter’s Community Arts Academy.

Offer a gift of your time
Volunteering for the organization is of immeasurable value to us. Helping to coordinate events, editing a newsletter, assisting with mailings, possibly tutoring students and practice partnering—these are ways of getting involved in a significant manner.

Spread the word!
Help us serve the wider community by furthering our reach. If you know of a prospective student, we would be happy to approach the family. Help us get the word out!
