Arts Alliance

The Savannah Country Day School Arts Alliance is a parent volunteer organization with the following mission: The purpose of the Arts Alliance is to provide a forum for parental involvement in and in support of the Savannah Country Day School fine arts program, to provide financial support for approved fine arts programs and amenities, and to increase the awareness of the school’s fine arts programs both within and outside the Savannah Country Day School family.

Country Day places a high value on helping all students express themselves artistically.  By joining the Arts Alliance, we direct our financial support to the arts through grants to the fine and performing arts faculty and spirit building among the student body.

WHAT HAS THE ARTS ALLIANCE SUPPORTED IN THE PAST? 
In the Lower School, we have funded art installations, easels, art tables, high-performance music software, and instruments for small hands.  In the Middle and Upper Schools, we have helped upgrade computers and cameras for art and design classes, purchases new pottery wheels. and have funded stage enhancements, teaching professionals, instruments, and equipment.

Last year the Arts Alliance was able to make its largest distribution in a school year since our group was founded in 2006! We were able to grant 100% of SCDS fine and performing arts faculty grant requests reaching students in the LS, MS, and US grades in all arts disciplines.  

GIVING OPPORTUNITIES THIS YEAR 
Our various donor levels give members a set of complimentary tickets to each of the school’s five theatrical productions (3 Upper School, 2 Middle School).  We are excited to give businesses this new opportunity.
