The Fine Arts Booster Group (FABG) awarded four grants to support arts education for students. Booster supported DeWitt Middle School Orchestra’s travel to Boston for a performance clinic with the Boston Symphony Orchestra, the Fall Creek Brass Band will perform at Beverly J. Martin Elementary, including a joint song with fourth and fifth graders, and Cayuga Heights Elementary will organize all district third graders to attend an Ithaca Ballet performance and demonstration in the coming school year.
In addition, the Ithaca High School musical production of Anything Goes was supported by a special grant from the Strebel Fund for Community Enrichment of the Community Foundation of Tompkins County. These four projects will reach 777 students and $3,457 was granted.
