“We’re excited to be an FY26 grantee! Thanks to Arts Midwest, we’ve received $5,000 to bring Caro Pierotto, a world-renowned Brazilian Bossa Nova Singer, who engaged every 7th- and 8th-grade student in the Davenport Community Schools through 9 performances at 5 school locations over 3 days. Pierotto also hosted a workshop for our Sudlow Middle School and Creative Arts Academy dance students.
