    What are SOFA's programs?

    Orphaned Instruments - SOFA accepts donations of instruments that are no longer being used and, by working with the schools' music teachers, gets these instruments into the hands of Ballston Spa students who might not otherwise be able to participate in our schools' instrumental music program. 

    Summer Music Lessons - SOFA sponsors summer music lessons that are taught by Ballston Spa music teachers.

    "Let Us Introduce You to..." - SOFA presents a fine arts student from Ballston Spa in the Ballston Journal weekly newspaper, highlighting that student's accomplishments through an interview with the student.

    Saratoga County Fair Art Project - SOFA helps set up the displays of Ballston Spa students' art work at the county fair held each year in July.

    Fundraisers - Throughout the year, SOFA raises funds through donations as well as collecting printer ink cartridges and cellular phones for recycling.  Each June, SOFA sells ice cream sundaes at one of the schools' spring concerts.
