Adopt-A-School

Now, more than ever, numerous barriers prevent access to the arts. Whether it be the cost of admission or round-trip bus transportation, many of Georgia’s Title I schools struggle to provide experiential learning opportunities to their K-12 students. In line with our Mission, Vision, and commitment to I.D.E.A. (Inclusion, Diversity, Equity Access), ArtsBridge Foundation founded the Adopt-A-School program to help remove barriers and provide access to the arts.

Adopt-A-School began with an inaugural donation in 2015 from the law firm of Wilson, Brock & Irby, LLC. Grades 3 through 5 – 350 students and their teachers – were able to attend a one-hour performance at the Cobb Energy Performing Arts Centre. Per Larry M. Dingle, Esq., Counsel at Wilson, Brock & Irby, LLC, “We are so pleased to be able to bring the wonderful arts programs that ArtsBridge provides to the students of our Atlanta metropolitan area to Fickett Elementary. We hope that by kicking-off this important program we will inspire additional donors – both corporations and individuals – to join us in giving more deserving students access to ArtsBridge performances.”
