Support Today’s LaGuardia Students
Alumni & Friends of LaGuardia provides vital support to the school and its students through merit awards and need-based scholarships for summer study, private lessons, master classes, as well as funding for the studios. Donations to our Annual Fund support general arts education enrichment and our daily operating budget. The caliber of the LaGuardia experience greatly depends on the resources available to the school and the students. Through the Annual Fund, arts programs are strengthened and faculty and staff are provided with the tools necessary for students to learn at the highest level.
