Elevate Oakland is a non-profit that works to bring culturally vibrant art and music programs to Oakland’s youth.
About us
Our mission to provide students with opportunities to engage in art and music programming has led Elevate Oakland to partner with public schools to meet a wide variety of needs, ranging from the provision of musical instruments to facilitating opportunities for students to perform alongside local professional musicians. To date, Elevate Oakland has successfully served over 3,000 youth at over 30 Oakland public schools. Across its programs, the focus is not on creating professional musicians, but instead on utilizing music and the arts as a conduit to get students excited about learning. Elevate Oakland supports students by using this excitement to get kids to school, engage them in learning, and support the development of skills that will help them succeed both within and outside of the classroom.

Elevate…. EMERYVILLE!!! We’re over the moon to announce that we’ve expanded our programs to serve more than 200 students ranging from grades TK-8 in Emeryville Unified School District this year. We’ve got an incredible team of teaching artists who are leading students grades TK-3 in choir during the school day and grades 4-8 in after-school vocal lessons 🎤🎶 The expansion of our programs to new school sites and districts in need of extra support in music and arts curriculum is made possible by the generous support of our donors and volunteers 💪 It’s not too late to make a contribution to help us meet our year-end goal!!
