Recently, Shana Tucker brought together band, orchestra, and chorus students for an unforgettable performance at @wcpss_schools Washington Elementary.

“I loved how you were able to incorporate some of our student musicians on stage with you; they really enjoyed it and will be a memory they won't forget!” 
— Melissa Holmes, Band Director

🎵 On the FIRST day of impact, the arts gave to me... passion ignited!

Recently, United Arts and @carolinaballet gifted tickets to cultural arts reps like Jenni Sonstroem.

"My daughter, who has danced since age 4, was so inspired. She said, ‘That’s what I want to do when I grow up.’ Those tickets were gold to us; core memories made.”
