Announcing the 2017 Student Arts Outreach Program
(
The Schultz-Hill Foundation kicked off its 2017 Youth Concert Series on April 6 with a performance by the Bay Atlantic Symphony for 250 Atlantic City students in grades 3-8, at Stockton University’s Dante Hall Theater. Students were from the Pennsylvania Avenue and Richmond Avenue schools in Atlantic City, and had an opportunity to study the music with their teachers through a month-long curriculum provided by the Bay Atlantic Symphony. Many of the students also were in the schools’ music programs and learning to play an instrument. Original student art, with the concert as a topic, was exhibited at the performance. The Foundation covered the full cost of this program, including transportation of the students to Dante Hall Theater. Click here for event photos.
