Let's show some love to what matters! Thanks to the Music Fund for Excellence, a group of talented Fred Fox School of Music students were able to attend the 2023 American Choral Directors Association Conference in Cincinnati, Ohio. This incredible opportunity has helped pave the way for our future choral directors and educators to grow and excel. We couldn't be prouder of their achievements!

Support your passion. Support future Wildcat generations. Any amount makes a difference, and it all adds up to a better Arizona.
