About this Campaign
Your gifts will help purchase equipment needed in PANgea, a steel drum band in Lincoln Public Schools.
PANgea was founded in 2003 by LPS music educator John Scofield. It is
the only group of its kind in Nebraska and serves as an ambassador for
LPS, performing at many different events in the Lincoln community. The
group gives percussionists throughout LPS enriching musical experiences
that they would not find otherwise in a traditional concert band
setting. Members of the 2016-2017 group represent all high schools and
nine middle schools from LPS. The group meets for rehearsals once a week
on Saturday mornings starting in November through the end of the school
year.
PANgea’s equipment was originally purchased with a combination of funds
from the Foundation for Lincoln Public Schools and the LPS music
department. There is not an annual budget for this group; money received
from performances covers our operational costs (tuning, truck and
rental fees, etc.) and not much more. We are seeking funds to replace
lead and guitar steel pans.
Thank you for considering a donation to PANgea. Your gifts will help
PANgea continue to provide memorable musical experiences to young
musicians throughout Lincoln Public Schools.
