For the 2nd consecutive year, 24 students in the arts will each receive a scholarship in the amount of $1,000 for their accomplishments at Saddleback College. The event will also recognize fine arts students completing degrees or transferring and will include a post-show reception in the Fine Arts courtyard. This event is free to the public (as space is available), with doors opening at 7:00 p.m.
The Angels for the Arts is a fundraising and support organization for the Performing and Visual Arts at Saddleback College. Angel members donate their time and talent to raise funds and assist with a variety of arts events on the campus.
The group is led by a volunteer advisory board of directors. Angel members believe in the importance of offering a full spectrum of arts to the community, with the college as the focal point.
These events bring together Orange County residents from all walks of life, for the purpose of enlightenment, entertainment, and inspiration.
The Angels also provide support for scholarships for students in Visual & Performing Arts, MainStage Kids productions, master classes with professional artists, hospitality for guest artist performers and crew, and enhancements for arts patrons, such as a patron tram, and the annual Big Band Swing Thing fundraiser.
Located in Mission Viejo, Saddleback College provides quality higher education and training to the greater south Orange County community.
