Support Young Artists
The Citizen Artists Campaign
Fund the next generation of musicians who serve through art. Help us raise $2,500 this August to keep the DACAMERA Young Artist Program application free for all.
Why This Matters
Every year, DACAMERA’s Young Artist Program offers more than just training, it opens doors. Through paid internships, hands-on teaching experience, and professional performance opportunities, young musicians are equipped not just to perform, but to serve.
These artists bring music into classrooms, community centers, and neighborhoods throughout Houston, using their talents to uplift and connect.
But opportunity shouldn’t come with a price tag.
With your help, we can keep the application free and ensure that every young artist — no matter their background — has a chance to apply.

• Paid teaching artist experience
• Paid performances and new commissions
• Free professional development and workshops
• Free headshots for career use
• Free concert tickets to DACAMERA performances
