Contributions
At South Shore Conservatory, tuitions cover 80% of the cost of operating our school and bringing quality education in the arts to our students. The balance comes from contributions from many generous individuals, businesses and foundations, who want to help the Conservatory enrich lives through the arts in the communities of the South Shore. Your contributions help fund programs, financial assistance for our students, outreach programming in our communities and outstanding performing arts events throughout the year.
We invite you to support the Conservatory. Please see below for opportunities to encourage arts education on the South Shore. Thank you for your interest and generosity!
