Fiscal Sponsorship

Glendale Arts Fiscal Sponsorship offers a way for a cause to attract donors even when the organization doing the mission driven work it is not recognized as a 501c3. In essence, Glendale Arts serves as the administrative “home” of the cause and provides a non-profit structure, including administrative and accounting support, grant and fundraising opportunties, and capacity building access, to organizations serving the community through visial and performing arts programming. Glendale Arts is proud to serve three impactful organizations as their fiscal sponsor. Read about them below:

The Music Path

Empowering The Next Generation

The Music Path is a platform, created by Robby Krieger of The Doors, to encourage and support the next generation of original Contemporary Music-makers, with a focus on collaborative creativity and live performance.

PLAY-OFF

What: The PLAY-off Program, free for public high schools, provides students the opportunity to learn, write and perform the Contemporary Music they’re most passionate about, as they prepare for a “Battle of the Bands” concert!

After a three year disruption due to the Covid-19 pandemic, the PLAY-off program pilot at Hoover High School is back! This groundbreaking after school program, created by Mitch Zelezny and Robby Krieger of The Doors, provides high school students the opportunity to form bands and choose their favorite music to rehearse and perform in this end-of-year competition. Unlike most extra curricular programs, this is almost entirely student driven! The Music Path provides the state-of-the-art studio on campus with performing artists as facilitators, who provide the technical support, inspiration and guidance as needed. The program does not require bands to perform at a professional level. Instead students must learn to collaborate, work as a team, and coordinate the school/practice/life balance … while learning great music and having fun.

When: Tuesday, May 17, 2023 7pm – 9:30pm

Where: Herbert Hoover High School Auditorium
651 Glenwood Rd.
Glendale, CA 91203

ON THE HORIZON

High-quality professional performance opportunities for PLAY-off graduates and emerging artists that broaden artistic community and greater local community engagement.

TMP provides live concert production support in their On The Horizon concert series. Through the formation of coalitions, up and coming bands leverage their individual promotional efforts to build audience and their share of concert revenues. TMP provides the up-front funding to secure a venue, as well as any additional lighting or sound reinforcement needs. These performances are captured with high quality multi-camera, multi-track audio to create content, freely available for the act’s future promotional use. TMP recruits many passionate and ambitious young artists to facilitate PLAY-off program students, from the resulting larger “tighter” artistic community.
