You nurture exceptional artists.
A 2019 graduate of Strathmore’s Artist in Residence (AIR) program, Seán Heely was the first AIR alum to headline the Music Center stage in December. Seán performed for a sold-out crowd and secured an agent!
You champion emerging talent.
Karen Bendersky shared the spotlight in past Miniatures group exhibitions. And this season, you put this talented master oil painter on center stage with a solo exhibition. Your generosity supported Karen in the early stages of a prestigious career.
You went deeper to discover beauty.
Your support brought the acclaimed Ukrainian quartet DakhaBrakha to the Music Center. DakhaBrakha shows the beauty of their country, a side of their identity often overlooked. They light the way through dark times through the arts.
You amplify distinctive and diverse artistic voices to enrich every life.
Gerson Lanza, an AIR alum (Class of 2022), developed Mi Vida en Rhythm, a work about his life and identity as a Black Latinx immigrant. Your support of Strathmore’s AMPLIFY program removed cost and time barriers, allowing Gerson and his team of artists the financial resources and space necessary to create this meaningful work. The result? A beautiful collaboration of live music, media design, and dance telling Gerson’s story.
