| Opera Cultura at San Jose High School |
| HELP BRING MUSIC TO YOUTH The Opera Cultura Vocal Program |
| Your support can make it possible for high school students from under served communities in San Jose, particular those of Latino descent, have an opportunity to receive vocal training. Currently, there is no vocal program at San Jose High School. It is a school with few resources and its student population is mostly Latino (75%). The director of the school’s Mariachi Program, Sofia Fojas, has sought to further develop the student’s vocal skills and expose them to other musical styles. Your support will help underwrite a 20 week artist in residency program at San Jose High School and the commis- sioning of a new vocal work for the students by Hector Armienta. The residency will culminate into performance by the students at their annual May concert and at MACLA in May of 2010. They will perform Mariachi vocal repertoire and the new piece. Won't you help? |

| We have recently received a grant from the Silicon Valley Community Foun- dation's Donor Circle for the Arts to support this program. However, we still need your support to fully fund it. It is our intent to build this program into a music theater conservatory program in 2 to 3 years for youth in the East San Jose communities. Please help. |
