Music and Arts USA is a grassroots organzation dedicated to donating instruments and teaching artists to schools without music programs.

Music and Arts USA was formed after its founder David C Gross, owner of 144 Music and Arts Inc www.144musicandarts.com , an outsourced Arts Education company, realized that many schools were doing without music programs because they could not afford instruments or music teachers. His vision is to create an organization that can through donations, purchase musical instruments and give them to schools that want to initiate a music program and have no resources to purchase them. Music and Arts USA wants a band in every school!!!

We Believe:

• Listening to music and playing music has a positive effect on a students cognitive brain development

• Students who play musical instruments in school are better listeners and are more cooperative

• Numerous studies show, that listening to and playing music can improve nonmusical skills such as literacy, verbal memory, mathematics, & IQ

• We believe every student should have access to musical instruments and music programs.
