My Project

We are requesting funding for new stage lighting equipment, including DMX cables, LED Par lights, moving head lights, and HDMI cables, to replace outdated gear from a previous project. These materials will enhance our musical production next year and expand our lighting capabilities. The new DMX cables will ensure reliable connectivity, while the LED Par lights and moving head lights will add dynamic color and effects to our stage. Additionally, the HDMI cables will support video connections during performances.

This project will provide students with hands-on experience in lighting design and production, helping them develop technical skills that can lead to careers in theater and entertainment.

Upgraded lighting will elevate the quality of our performances, allowing us to offer more engaging events and enrich the school’s arts program. These materials are essential to creating visually stunning productions and providing students with the tools to express their creativity.
