We rely on individual donors and small grant-providers to support the work of our organization. DYV provides the same high-quality arts education to all of our students - whether they pay tuition or depend on a full scholarship (half of our student body). 

One year of DYV music education includes:

  • ​30 private lessons & a monthly group lessons in the classical Suzuki method 
  • special workshops with Detroit musicians
  • quality instruments, music & materials
  • transportation support for parents
  • tickets to local classical performances
  • annual Spring solo recital & community performances 

All donations are tax deductible​ and should be addressed to our fiscal sponsor Allied Media Projects. 
Give the gift of music.

 $1,400 covers a year of 30-minute lessons for a beginner plus all of the above. $1,850 covers a year of 45-minute lessons for an intermediate or advanced student plus all of the above.

  2. Our DYV Sustainers commit to making a recurring contribution between $5 and $50 per month.
