From concerts to social media collaborations to custom video content, PRISMA offers valuable Corporate Sponsorship options to suit a variety of budgets and advertising goals.

Display Advertising in our souvenir program is another great way to put your message in the hands of thousands of concertgoers.

Musical Merit Fund

Our Musical Merit Fund (MMF) is the key to making our academy accessible to deserving students who meet or exceed the competitive enrolment requirements but cannot otherwise afford the cost of tuition, meals and lodging. The MMF is an essential part of PRISMA’s growth strategy and requires a five-year commitment at your support level of choice. Click here to learn more.
