Funding

Every tax deductible donation to NFAB goes far to fill the gaps in arts funding and to support students who may not otherwise be able to participate in arts programming in Northfield Public Schools. Since NFAB was founded in 2010, your donations have supported dozens of projects benefitting not just district students but the Northfield community as a whole.

2023-24 school year grants funded or partially funded: 

• An update to the Speech Team poetry library (NHS Speech Team pictured above) 

• An opportunity for NHS Band to collaborate with a composer 

• The inaugural "Cambiata Tenor Bass" festival at NMS 

• Studio art supplies for the "Gecko Gallery" event at GVP Elementary

• Calligraphy supplies for the ALC

• Judges and accompanists for the NMS Band Solo Festival 

• Choreographers for the Compañeros "Espectáculo del Talento" event at Bridgewater and Spring Creek and the NMS Spring Choir concert

• Sound support for the Jazz Band Swing Dance 

• Summer Band and Orchestra lessons 

• New mallets for the NHS Jazz percussionists

• Covering the cost of transportation to various festivals and field trips for band, orchestra and choir

As we look to the future of the Fine Arts Boosters, we eagerly anticipate growing support for the arts and the thousands of project support opportunities that exist. We review funding requests on a regular basis and invite Northfield Public School arts organizations to fill out our NFAB Program Funding Request Form for support consideration. Before submitting a grant request, consult your building principal to see if school district funds are available to cover your request.
