Day of Giving: Spark Grants Lighting the Way for New Possibilities Our newest grant opportunity is the “Spark Grant”. These small grant opportunities will fill the gaps for that special “something” teachers and students may need. Instruments—it may be that a school concert would be enhanced by two beautiful glockenspiels. Props–perhaps students are exploring movement, and that experience would be enhanced with black lights. Costuming–the sky is the limit here! Perhaps that dream is just beyond a teacher or school’s annual budget. ACEMM and the community which shares our vision of quality, creative, music and movement education are here to help! Spark Grants can fund projects or ideas up to $500 which are tied to elemental music and movement concepts. Thank you for supporting ACEMM, music and movement teachers, and their students by donating today!
