The Fine Arts Booster Group (FABG), an affiliate of IPEI, announced the Sunshine Grant, which will support Ithaca City School District (ICSD) secondary school students in the instrumental music program who have financial needs thanks to an anonymous donor. Support for students who need to purchase instrumental music supplies such as strings, reeds and other accessories is made possible by this new Sunshine Grant. Elimination of financial roadblocks to continued music study is the dream of the donor whose own children benefitted from ICSD music programs. The FABG hopes to inspire additional community members to support the Sunshine Grant in the future. It is a goal to make this funding ongoing and to possibly expand it to all areas of the fine and performing arts.
