Monty's Dedication Lives On Through The Foundation...

As Director of undergraduate performing arts at the University of Pennsylvania for over 50 years, Bruce “Monty” Montgomery’s passionate dedication to mentoring students created a unique opportunity for young people to explore their talents, to hone their artistic skills and, finally, to spread their wings and fly. Many of his students have gone on to distinguished careers in music, theater and cinema. Monty’s life work was the Foundation’s inspiration.

Ongoing fundraising efforts are critical to achieving our goal of providing significant financial support to future generations of musicians and artists. Contributions are sought through major gifts, planned giving, periodic fundraising events, and a strong Annual Giving program.
