For a petite skinny-legged girl, growing up “old school” meant children were to be seen, not heard. Positive reinforcement was not a parenting strategy. When your

parent or teacher remarked that you were special, it was not a compliment. And, a child did what was expected and directed by adults. No questions asked. None.

Then, that little girl began piano lessons at the community music school…and drawing class…and voice lessons…and musical theatre in her high school. She entered a world where thoughtful reflection, discipline and emotional vulnerability were prized. Where curiosity was encouraged and questions in the pursuit of excellence required. Trial and error and improvisation, often in front of strangers, a seminal part of learning.

Thatlittlegirl’svoicemadeherspecialandherteacherstoldherthiswithoutthe usual, dripping hallmark New Jersey sarcasm. In a world where life was very prescribed, a world of possibility opened, culminating in multiple degrees and decades of commitment as an arts advocate.

That skinny-legged little girl was me.

At CSMA, we open a world of possibility for every student. For the more than 15,000 students from ages 18 months to 90 years old in our elegant award-winning Finn Center and in over 30 public, private and charter schools across our region: Silicon Valley.

our exceptional faculty and staff are committed to helping you to open the door of possibility in yourself through art and music. For those whom financial circumstances prevent this opportunity, financial aid through scholarships and subsidies to our arts education in the schools alleviate this obstacle. For Sala, our teenaged “Kiri Te Kanawa” with the shimmering voice, a scholarship made it possible for her study at CSMA. Generous support made it possible for 600 Lyndale Elementary School students in East San Jose to study art, which helped to improve their academic performance and test scores in language arts and math.

Will you join me in making a gift to ensure the exceptional quality of our programs and to help open a world of new possibilities for a child?

At CSMA, each new day brings with it the opportunity for our students to experience music and art in new and meaningful ways.

From our In-School programs that serve thousands of children, many of whom are disadvantaged, to the private music lessons we offer in our elegant award-winning facility, we live our mission to inspire excellence through art and music education for people of all ages and abilities.

This is how we do it.• We live Arts4All• We teach excellence• We enrich youth• We level the playing field• We sustain community

Each year, significant funds are allocated as scholarships for students who demonstrate extraordinary dedication to their studies as well as those for whom the cost of lessons and classes is an impediment.

The Larson Society, honoring Robert and Sue Larson, is a scholarship fund created to ensure that CSMA can continue to provide this help in the coming years to those who need it most. Gifts to the Larson Society support the creativity and talent of Silicon Valley’s future, our young people.
