Minnesota Beatle Project Grants

Grant Opportunities

Vega Productions has partnered with the MMEA (Minnesota Music Educators Association) and the AEM (Art Educators of Minnesota) to help distribute Minnesota Beatle Project funds equitably across the entire state of MN. Grants distributed in 2010 and 2011 have provided the opportunity for more than 15,000 students to participate in music and art programs statewide!
 
**2012 and 2013 proceeds will be used to create and expand Instruments in the Cloud, a cloud-based website that will allow schools to organize and catalog their instrument inventory as well as the ability to easily share instruments with surrounding schools for students that cannot afford to rent or purchase them. The site will also connect instrument donors directly with schools. The use of the site will be FREE to all public and charter schools. To learn more about, click HERE.

"It has been 9 years since our music department received enough budgeted money to purchase new band and choir music. We've been borrowing it from other schools and playing what was in the files. The students had input to choose some of the music and are excited to learn how to play and sing it. Thanks for supporting our music department and giving us the opportunity to purchase the new materials."
