Give a CAP Shirt

A purple CAP t-shirt is a cherished memento of pride, creativity and accomplishment for our students. Shirts are worn over and over in class, at rehearsals, performances and events—but CAP often cannot provide a new one each year.

Help us provide this meaningful item to our more than 4,000 aspiring artists by donating below.
