Music in Pictures
COMMUNITY IMPACT
Since 2006, the Rosemary Beach Foundation has invested over $1.6 million in Walton County through local nonprofits, schools, hurricane recovery and COVID-19 relief. Our signature program, Music in Pictures, brings graduate musicians from the Florida State University College of Music into 20 public and private schools. There, more than 4,000 students from kindergarten through 12th grade listen to classical music and paint what they hear. Their best work is juried and shown each spring at the Coastal Branch Library, Freeport Public Library, Amavida Coffee and Tea, and Ascension Sacred Heart. Watch our featured video to see firsthand how your support makes a difference in the lives of those around us.
Our support reaches far beyond the classroom. We proudly give to Shelter House, Sharing and Caring, Westonwood Ranch, Special Olympics, Guardian ad Litem, Habitat for Humanity, South Walton Academy, Ascension Sacred Heart and many other Walton County base charities. Community events like Rosemary Beach Holiday Tour of Homes not only raise money but also awareness for the charities being supported.
