HAA Grants
We put member donations into action at Haldane!
HAA makes grants to fund arts initiatives and actions that advance our mission -- to support and promote the performing, visual, media, and literary arts at Haldane. Grant applications are accepted on an ongoing basis, anyone can apply, and we consider grant requests of all kinds. Note that this is our sixth year of fund-raising and grant-making; as a result, most HAA grants will continue to be modest (up to $1,000). Scroll down to find handy links to our grant application and report forms!

BAND AND CHORUS. Your HAA membership dollars and donations helped send middle school band and chorus members to the national "Music in the Parks" day in 2019 for the very first time in Haldane history! Band and chorus members traveled to Massachusetts to perform for adjudicators and received two trophies. As part of this special day, students visited Six Flags New England along with hundreds of other music students from schools throughout the region. Haldane Arts Alliance was pleased to partner with Haldane School Foundation in supporting this fabulous field trip. (HAA's grant helped purchase those groovy tie-dyed T-shirts celebrating music at Haldane!) Thanks to Ms. Stein and Ms. Frabotta for making it all happen!
LITERARY ARTS. Your HAA membership and donations helped support LETTERS FROM THE 845, a spring 2019 poetry reading featuring works by high school artists. This annual event took place at Chapel Restoration, overlooking the Hudson River. HAA thanks student writers for sharing their work, and also Dr. Eric Richter for organizing this fantastic program. And: A big shout-out to Haldane School Foundation for supporting poet Jeff McDaniel's work with student poets at Haldane for the past six years!
