This special afternoon is also an opportunity to celebrate the generous donors and supporters whose belief in young artists helps make scholarships possible. Their commitment ensures that talented performers have access to exceptional training and artistic opportunities, regardless of financial circumstances. At NiCori, our mission is simple: Educate. Inspire. Entertain. This scholarship fundraiser brings that mission to life by investing in the future of the performing arts—one young artist at a time.

NiCori Performing Arts Academy is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization based in Bloomfield, New Jersey, that manages the scholarship funds for students interested in theatre, vocal lessons and any other applicable forms of the performing arts. NiCori is a safe creative outlet for many theatre and voice students and we want to be sure that anyone who wants to be part of our programing will not be turned away due to financial hardship. Help us reach our $25,000 goal for 2026! Donors can deduct contributions made to NiCori Performing Arts Academy under IRC section 170.
