Sacramento Preparatory Music Academy hasn't added a story.

Sac Prep Music Academy is relocating to Midtown Sacramento, to The E. Claire Raley Studios for the Performing Arts on N & 25th.

We're super stoked to be the only music academy in house, surrounded by other performing arts organizations such as: Alliance Française de Sacramento,

Brazilian Center for Cultural Exchange of Sacramento, McKeever School of Irish Dance & Sacramento Ballet!

Sac Prep Music Academy has officially organized as a 501(c)(3) and is pending exempt status! Very exciting!  We have a wonderful and diverse group of people serving as the Board of Directors, and it's time to ask our supporters for help!

Our Mission: To support and advance access to lifelong learning opportunities in music arts education.
Our Vision: To create an environment where students and performing artists can meet for the study of music arts education & performance.

To date, we have paid for attorney fees, 501c3 filing fees, and studio design fees... and now it's time to build our studios, and move.  We are renovating one of our classrooms at the former Fremont School for Adults in Midtown, into four teaching studios for our growing staff to teach private music lessons.

Costs include: $7500 for the Studios, $2000 for the HVAC, $1000 for the Fire Sprinkler system & $1000 for lighting....Costs are adding up quick, and we have yet to even move in. We need chairs for our group classes, music stands, music stand carts, shelving. 

Please donate and help Sac Prep Music Academy in it's efforts to provide music programs for our Sacramento Community, such as: SPMA Guitar Project, Veterans Guitar Project, SPMA String Ensemble, and SPMA Summer Music Program.  We'll be setting up a membership program for beginners and intermediate musicians, and provide ensemble programs for them to join in (kind of like going to yoga once a week...but it'll be something like an adult guitar ensemble, or fiddle ensemble or beginning jazz band).

We are also looking for a couple Pianos, so please contact us if you have any leads. We need a good upright piano for upstairs, and a 6 or 7' grand for our group classroom downstairs.

This Fundrazr, if fully funded will build the studios for private music lessons, & fund opperational costs to get going in the new space.  We are leasing two classrooms: one for group music lessons, rehearsals, small classes and chamber music recitals... And a Classroom upstairs: being renovated, split into 4 music studios to teach private lessons.

Your contributions will help to develop Sac Prep Music Academy!

Please donate! and support our campaign! We really need to make this place great! and make music education more available to students who do not have access to music education, or cannot afford to pay for music education.  We have a great history of providing scholarships to students in need.
