What our Partners are saying...

“Thank you for all the tremendous support to the Pat Roche Hospice House patients and families – and for helping us launch this valuable new therapeutic support! Everything you have brought to PRHH has made a big difference.”
- Volunteer Coordinator and Chaplain, NVNA on Creative Arts Therapies


“We have a very large Cape Verdean population in Brockton. We have many Cape Verdean staff members and students in our school. I heard from more than one staff member how excited they were to have Cape Verdean music yesterday during ImagineARTS. It made them feel included. Kudos to your program and the instructors! They are absolutely wonderful!”
- Principal, Brockton Public Schools, on ImagineARTS


“Our resident’s mom has Alzheimer’s and was so enjoying the performance that she was moving and clapping her hands to the music. It was such a beautiful sight to witness. Also, another resident loved the performance and wanted to know if SSC can come to their Chinese New Year event! Thank you again for this opportunity; I know the residents enjoyed it very much.”
- Elderly & Disabled Housing Coordinator, Quincy Housing Authority, on outreach performances
