Mission Bay Preservationists go to Japan!
BECOME A FAMILY OR BUSINESS SPONSOR! HAVE YOUR NAME ON ALL PUBLICITY AS AN ADVOCATE FOR THE ARTS AT MISSION BAY MUSIC.
We are fundraising to give some of Southern California’s most talented young musicians the opportunity to travel and perform in JAPAN. This adventure started in 2017 when the Preservationists were selected to perform and represent San Diego in its sister city Yokohama, Japan to commemorate the sixtieth anniversary of sister city relations. We will be returning in April of 2023 to collaborate with local musicians, perform for community events and enhance the bonds between our two cities.
The Mission Bay Preservationists go to Japan!
We need to raise $30,000 to make this dream a reality. The San Diego-Yokohama Sister City Society has offered to help raise half of the needed funds!!! We are hopeful community and business members will step up to help fund this amazing experience.
Mission Bay High School is a Title 1 school with a very culturally diverse population. This is definitely something that is very unique to our school and city. These students have limited resources. The music program strives to enrich their lives and give them experiences that will foster a sense of purpose and pride in their heritage. We are a melting pot of cultures and music. To have all these students from various backgrounds come together and form a cohesive group focused on traditional jazz is a true accomplishment. This learning experience would give students the opportunity of a lifetime!
ALL FUNDS RAISED WILL GO TOWARDS:
- TRAVEL EXPENSES (PLANE TICKETS FROM SAN DIEGO TO JAPAN),
- HOTEL COSTS (8 DAYS AND 7 NIGHTS)
- INSTRUMENT RENTALS
- TRANSPORTATION IN JAPAN FOR PERFORMANCES
