Dear Friend of the Music Academy,
As we enter this season of gratitude, all of us at the Music Academy of the West thank you for being a valued part of our community. Your presence—whether in the audience, at our events, or in support of our young artists—brings joy and meaning to everything we do.
This Thanksgiving, we’re reflecting on the extraordinary moments we shared this summer. From welcoming our largest class of 150 fellows to presenting vibrant performances across Santa Barbara, the 2025 Summer Music Festival & School was filled with energy, discovery, and connection.
Most of all, we’re grateful for you: your enthusiasm, your support, and your belief in the power of music to uplift and unite. You make it possible for the Music Academy to be a place where artistry thrives and where our community comes together in harmony.
Wishing you and your loved ones a joyful, peaceful, and music-filled Thanksgiving.
With gratitude,
Shauna Quill, President & CEO
Music Academy of the West
