Support Takes Center Stage
Gathering to Give Back
The Experience the Arts Gala and Master Artist Series are two powerful ways Friends of LVA Foundation connects generosity with student impact.
Our biggest fundraiser of the year, the annual gala brings supporters together for a signature night of celebration and fundraising, allowing us to connect accomplished artists directly to students for once-in-a-lifetime learning opportunities.
A Night that Shines Throughout the Year
Over the years, gala funds have powered an incredible array of enhancements: from upgrading our technology with cutting-edge Chromebooks to creating state-of-the-art spaces like a new recording studio, piano lab, and a whisper room.
We’ve also revitalized our theaters, resurfaced dance studio floors, equipped our print shop, and provided new instruments, masterclasses, and vital scholarships for college, camps, and travel. The impact of these galas on our students’ artistic journeys is immeasurable—join us, and be a part of something truly extraordinary!
Master Artist Series
Real Artists. Real Access. Real Impact.
Launched through gala support, the Master Artist Series has become one of the Foundation’s most powerful student-impact programs. By bringing professional actors, musicians, visual artists, performers, and creative leaders to campus, the series gives students access to experiences that can deepen their training and expand their vision for the future.
As Friends of LVA Foundation looks to the future, we aim to expand this remarkable event and program even further. By increasing fundraising efforts, we aim to offer more frequent and diverse opportunities for student engagement.
Our vision is to host an even greater number of master artists and to ensure that 100% of our students have the chance to be inspired and mentored by these extraordinary professionals. We invite you to join us in fueling the creative journey of young artists by sponsoring the Master Artist Series. Your support will open doors to extraordinary experiences and mentorships, empowering students to reach new heights in their artistic pursuits.
