The Mon Valley Academy for the Arts (MVAA) proudly announces a generous donation of four new Fender CD-60 acoustic guitars, complete with cases, from Greg Joseph of The Clarks and Main Street Music.
Greg Joseph, a celebrated musician and community advocate, personally visited the Peter J. Daley Cultural Center (MVAA South) to deliver the instruments, tour the facility, and learn more about the organization’s work in fostering arts education and musical talent in the Mon Valley. The guitars will be used in MVAA’s various music education programs, providing students with high-quality instruments to support their learning and creativity.
“We are deeply grateful to Greg Joseph for this incredible gift,” said Annette Buffer, President of MVAA. “These guitars will serve as a vital resource for our programs, allowing students to grow their musical skills and confidence. Greg’s visit to the Peter J. Daley Cultural Center shows his commitment not only to music but to the young people in our community who will benefit from these instruments for years to come.”
MVAA Vice President Carla Anderton echoed these sentiments, stating, “Greg Joseph’s generosity reflects the spirit of community and collaboration that MVAA strives to promote every day. His willingness to engage with our organization and provide resources for our students underscores the transformative power of music and the arts.”
The visit culminated in a group photo featuring MVAA staff and Greg Joseph, capturing the spirit of partnership and shared enthusiasm for music education.
MVAA thanks Greg Joseph and Main Street Music for their continued support of arts and culture in the Mon Valley. Their donation will inspire future generations of musicians and help MVAA achieve its mission to empower a rising star in every student.
