Instrument Donations

School Concerts

Coastal Concerts brings world-class professional musicians to Sussex County schools to perform concerts for students K to 12th grade. Coastal Concerts' philosophy is that every child should experience the joy, fun, and learning that music brings to life. Children also learn "how to be a good audience." Many students would otherwise be deprived of experiencing a live classical music concert. [more school concerts info]
