Tomorrow, April 9th is One Day, One U of A! Music75, sending University of Arkansas music students and faculty to all 75 Arkansas counties to give performances, was chosen as one of the day’s projects to support.

You may donate at:

https://www.givecampus.com/schools/UniversityofArkansas/one-day-one-u-of-a-2026

Music75 is Project 23 in the list of options.

All gifts for Music75 up to the first $5000 are being matched by Fayetteville music supporter Cece Box, so this makes giving twice as impactful.

Thank you in helping to make this fundraising drive a success! This will make a big difference in being able to support the travel of students making music across Arkansas.

Best,

Alan Gosman
