This year St. Petersburg College is again partnering with the Gasparilla Music Foundation (GMF) to support music and education through the Recycled Tunes instrument donation drive.
Week-long instrument donation drive
Anyone can donate gently used musical instruments at several SPC campus locations from Nov. 27 – Dec. 1. The instruments will be refurbished by Recycled Tunes and then donated to Pinellas County Schools’ music programs.
All donors will receive a ticket to the 2018 Gasparilla Music Festival.
This is the second year the college has taken part in the effort. Last year more than 80 instruments were collected.
