CAPA Gives Money to Visual Arts, Music Programs at Wayland High

The Creative Arts Parent Association (CAPA), a registered nonprofit organization and the only volunteer parents’ group committed solely to supporting and promoting the visual and performing arts at Wayland High School, recently announced its fall grant awards:

• Music programs: Bose Bluetooth speaker for mobile music playing/listening; Music notation software for new music lab;Software updates for Smart Music
• Theater program: supplies to store food for student performers

Every year CAPA also supports these programs for the fine arts program:

• Master classes
• Scholarships for music and art festivals (Senior Districts, Art and Music All-State)
• Fine Arts varsity-style jackets
• Fine Arts Night
• Your Tax-Deductible Donation Supports WHS Fine Arts Programming

In lieu of a letter mailing this year, CAPA is going green and asking supporters to consider CAPA with an online donation. Any amount is appreciated; but the organization is offering those who donate $100 or more by Dec. 31a complimentary pair of tickets to our Spring College A Cappella concert (a $36 value).

“With its funding guidelines, CAPA strives to support the fine arts students and program at WHS by funding ‘extras’ and ‘nice to have’ items requested by the fine arts teachers that would otherwise not be possible. With the level-funded budgets in the past years eroding the fine arts budget for some supplies, CAPA recognizes that it is important to fund some consumables that the teachers need for classes, but that are no longer covered by the school budget.”
