Diversity

VEST offers far more than music education—we build confidence, empathy, and belonging. Our ensembles bring together children, teens, adults, and seniors in joyful, inclusive music-making.

But this only happens with your help. Your support directly funds:

  • Scholarships for low-income families

  • Accessible programs for singers with disabilities

  • Innovative ensembles that reflect our diverse community

  • Performance opportunities that uplift and unite

Every contribution helps a voice be heard.
