The Primavera Fund removes the financial barriers between talented young musicians and the education that they deserve.
"You'll walk by more talent on the street every day than you'll ever see on stage." - David Segal, Co-Founder and President
Our Mission
We identify, mentor, and underwrite the artistic endeavors of young musicians whose talent surpasses their financial means. We create agents of change in communities as future performers, teachers, leaders, and role-models.
We believe that talent is a gift to the world, and should never be lost to financial uncertainty.

Hard work + Support = Success!
The Primavera Artists have been accepted to world-renowned programs including Interlochen, Brevard Music Center, Kinhaven Music Center, and The Philadelphia Youth Orchestra, and have won prestigious prizes and competitions. Our first Primavera Artist to graduate high school will enter Rowan University as a Music Education major in the fall, with a full tuition scholarship. These are just some of the accomplishments that make our Artists very special!
