The Presser Foundation Announces Advancement of Music Grants
The Presser Foundation is pleased to announce the selection of grantees for Advancement of Music. These grants, totaling almost $650,000, provide general operating support to music presenting, music performing and music education organizations within a 100-mile radius of Center City Philadelphia.
Michael Stairs commented on the Advancement of Music grants, “Nothing gives me more joy as Chair of the Advancement Committee than giving grants to area musical organizations that are performing high quality music in a high quality manner. These fine organizations report back to us that they feel grateful for the support of The Presser Foundation throughout their seasons.”
