At Reprise Foundation for the Arts, we believe that music and art are basic human rights that should be accessible to all, regardless of socioeconomic status, means, geographic location, age, or other barriers. Together with our donors, we seek to eliminate barriers while building connections that that form a stronger community.
We offer scholarships that make arts education and events more accessible in SLO County.
Founded in 2023 by Lacey McNamara, Danielle McNamara, and Alexis Lewis, Reprise provides inclusive access to meaningful arts and music education, opportunities, and experiences that enrich the lives of SLO County residents.
“This scholarship made a huge difference for our family! We hit a financially challenging time and were going to have to give up one of our daughter’s activities. This was a huge disappointment! When we were given the scholarship, I couldn’t wait to tell our daughter we could go back our beloved music class. Thank you for allowing us to keep our daughter engaged in a wonderful music program!”

“We are grateful for the scholarship as this class has been great in terms of socialization, art, music, and connection. This scholarship allowed us to remain in the class which helps my son learn how to interact with his peers through music. As a parent, being part of the program has helped me to engage better with my son as well. I do not have more words to express my deep gratitude.”
