Band/Orchestra Project

 

Thanks to on-going support from Freshway Foods and Ferguson Construction, the arts council is able to provide musical instruments to students who want to participate in their schools’ bands or orchestras, but cannot for lack of an instrument.

 

GAC accepts donated instruments and purchases others. The instruments are available to beginning students in any Shelby County school. As long as the students maintain at least a C average, they may continue to use the instruments through the 12th grade.

 

Students at Sidney City Schools, Fairlawn Local Schools, Christian Academy Schools, and Russia Local Schools enjoy the use of instruments this year.
