Arts and Culture

In 2017, we gave $3 million to groups that provided New Yorkers with affordable, high-quality artistic and cultural experiences.

Success Story

Midori & Friends
The Midori & Friends “Signature Concert & Workshop Series” expands the horizons of thousands of students each year with concerts and workshops that open doors to new musical worlds.

Listen to kids talk about Midori’s impact.

  • Students are clapping in an auditorium
  • A group of young musicians are rehearsing for a performance.
  • A young group of musicians are performing in a symphony styled setting.

The Signature Concert series exposes students to a wide variety of music styles, instruments, and playing techniques, as well as the special musical “signatures” of legendary composers.
