Mission

Promoting and supporting live concerts and performing arts education locally.

990-EZ for the year ended May 31, 2026

Program accomplishments

  • WMS offered two series of in-school discovery and interactive concerts for six local elementary schools in collaboration with the Symphony of the Americas. These concerts conducted in full assemblies engage all students in each school. The aim is to familiarize young students with various instruments in a traditional orchestra and their significance in different music genres they encounter. Additionally the program seeks to cultivate their interest in music programs as they progress to middle and high school.
    grants $6,570
  • WMS awards scholarships to high school seniors pursuing music or performing arts in higher education. WMS partners with local high school arts teachers to recognize students with exceptional musical talent. A ceremony at City Hall and media recognition celebrate the recipients. WMS stays in touch with scholars to aid their progress. Due to delayed check cashing this year expenses will reflect on next years tax return.
    grants $3,900
  • WMS supports two middle school and two high school band programs through annual grant donations for beginner instrument fittings and instrument maintenance costs. WMS builds strong relationships with these programs and local triM Music Honors Society chapters to sustain music education for students and families in the community.
    grants $4,000
