Every paver we sell is a step in the right direction.  The Sandler Center Foundation has established a permanent endowment for the sole purpose of bringing the performing arts to school children through educational programming and school field trips.  Not just this year, but every year.  

Consider buying a paver for family, friends, anyone in your life that holds special meaning to you.  Every paver will be a permanent reminder of your (and their) commitment to the arts.

It is a gift that audiences will cherish and applaud for generations.  Sandler Center pavers are available in two sizes:  4x8 at $200 and 8x8 at $300.
