The ART of Jazz – an afternoon of fine art in July

Posted on by dcms

“The Art of Jazz: a unique event combining the work of local artists with the sounds of jazz students practising their skills at the South Delta Jazz Festival Workshop. The musicians will be inside the McKee Heritage House, which is now the Delta Community Music School, while the Artists will be set up in the surrounding lawns. The public will be invited to wander through the grounds and meet with the artists while listening to the joyful sounds of jazz bursting forth through the walls of the old house. What an event this promises to be!

This event will take place on Friday, July 8, 2011 from 1-4 pm at 4705 Arthur Drive in Ladner.

More information about artists will be available soon. Artists can apply to display works at this event by contacting the music school office at 604-946-1280

Fundraising event – Meat Draws at the Landing

Posted on by dcms

The following dates have been lined up the music school in 2010 at “The Landing” on Ladner Trunk Road for our Meat Draw Fund raisers . The times are from 3pm until 7pm each date:

We need volunteers to come out to help us on February 20, March 27. Later in the year we have dates booked for April 17, May 15, June 19, September 18, October 16, November 13 and December 11. Please check your calendars and sign up on the volunteer sheets in the office if you can come and help. We only need about 3 volunteers for each event, and its fun!!

Like most arts and culture groups in the province of BC, Delta Community Music School has lost its government support due to the cancellation of the direct access grants and severe cut backs to BC arts council. These grants amount to about 8% of our operating funds. Without this support the school needs to explore other sources of revenues and funding. While fundraisers like this one may seem “small” the proceeds do add up and help keep your fees lower than they could be.
