Adopt the Arts is a 501(c)(3) Non-profit funding arts programs in public elementary schools. Co-founded by former Guns n' Roses drummer Matt Sorum, Adopt the Arts is dedicated to raising and distributing funds for music education and musical instruments to benefit LAUSD schools, whose budgets for music/arts education have been slashed to the bone.

It is the mission of Adopt the Arts Foundation to bring together well-known artists, public figures, entrepreneurs, policy makers, and the general public to save the arts in America's public schools. We believe that it is morally and ethically incumbent upon us to foster the creativity, dreams, hopes, and imaginations of our children.
I’m extremely honored to be amongst the world class performers at two upcoming concerts to benefit Adopt the Arts here in Los Angeles on July 2nd and 3rd at The Mint (6010 West Pico Blvd Los Angeles, CA 90035).

ADOPT THE ARTS AND THE MINT PRESENT:
"FILLMORE" SUMMER CELEBRATION ~
TWO NIGHTS OF MUSIC IN THE "FILLMORE" SPIRIT!
Please join us for 2 nights of amazing music, performed by some of the finest recording and touring artists in LA… oh, and me...
On Wednesday July 2nd, we’ll be celebrating the music of Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young, covering songs from their eponymous, collaborative group as well as songs from their respective solo careers.
On Thursday July 3rd we’ll be celebrating the music of The Allman Bros Band, with whom I had the pleasure of songwriting, recording and touring “back in the day”, focusing on their “Fillmore East” era material.
Extra special guest artists will be sitting in both evenings as well as some wonderful opening acts...
In addition there will be an auction of signed music memorabilia from both legendary bands.
Doors for both shows are @8PM.
All net proceeds will benefit Adopt the Arts and their kids. Please join us if you’re anywhere near West Los Angeles on either (or both) evenings. If you're unable to join us, please consider a tax-deductible donation to Adopt the Arts... our kids need and deserve music and the arts as components of their education and foundations of their lives...
