Brockton School’s 10-day cultural tour of Costa Rica has been cancelled due to coronavirus concerns, but the school is continuing with its support of music education programs there.
Students in the school’s world music program were set to embark on the trip to give concert hall performances, as well as fundraising performances to support students in rural, low-income communities.
However, through the program’s instrument donation campaign, the school has collected more than $20,000 worth of instruments, which are still slated to be shipped to Costa Rick in the coming week so that Central American music organizations there can benefit from the donations.
