Wharton Arts is a nonprofit performing arts organization that is based out of New Jersey. It is made up of four different programs including the New Jersey Youth Symphony, New Jersey Youth Chorus, Performing Arts School and Paterson Music Project. 

Our mission is to offer an accessible, high quality performing arts education that sparks personal growth and builds inclusive communities.

Every year we fundraise towards our Playathon (The New Jersey Youth Symphony's largest annual fundraiser) which takes place every year in The Mills at Jersey Gardens mall. We have over 500 students perform collectively, and this year will be setting up different booths throughout the event. Each program will have student leaders presenting a different free activity for the public!

I'm lucky enough to be the oboe instructor and development director here at Wharton Arts! Please consider supporting these incredible students and our wonderful programs! A donation of any size helps ensure that we keep the arts available and accessible to all!

Thank you for supporting the arts! <3
