AAA provides vital arts programming to our mountain communities through our signature Youth Enrichment Program, and through Community Concerts.

YOUTH ENRICHMENT PROGRAM

Our Youth Enrichment Program is our most impactful program. It operates in partnership with the Rim of the World Unified School District. We provide direct support to our local public school students, home schooled students, and students attending our local charter schools through:

Private Music Instruction – Scholarships are paid quarterly to teachers to subsidize the cost of student lessons.

Instrument Rental Scholarships – Affordable instrument rentals are available to all string students.

Music Camp Scholarships – We provide scholarships for local students to attend the acclaimed Arrowbear Music Camp and other regional music camps.

Musical Performances in the Schools – We present annual musical performances to three elementary schools, reaching over 1,700 children grades K through 6, without cost to the school district.

Early Childhood Programs – Our local schools have been able to provide arts programming to K through 3rd grade classrooms due to funds from Proposition 28. We do, however, provide additional financial support to enhance programming.

String Program and Youth Orchestras – Our string programs include the Elementary, Elementary Advanced, Intermediate Orchestra, Intermediate Chamber Players, and Young Artists’ Ensemble at three elementary schools in the Rim of the World School District.

Frosty Fiddles, Stringtacular – These youth recitals provide all music students, grades 4-12, with an opportunity to perform.

COMMUNITY CONCERTS

Fall Music Festival – We present a yearly concert by the Riverside County Philharmonic.

Youth Symphony Concerts – We present free concerts by regional youth symphonies.
