The Reva and Sid Dewberry Family School of Music is leading the charge by utilizing its collective efforts and creative energy to shed light on the talents of those who have been historically underrepresented. As part of this crucial endeavor, the School has established a monthly educational series that includes masterclasses and roundtable discussions highlighting Black musicians and their contributions to the music field.

When George Mason Â鶹¹ú²ú students returned for the fall semester in late August, things looked a little different, but the excitement of a new semester was the same. Students in John Aler’s opera class were happy to be back on campus, especially now that their classroom was in the Center for the Arts.

George Mason Â鶹¹ú²ú’s School of Music will be renamed the Reva and Sid Dewberry Family School of Music, in honor of the Dewberrys’ lifetime legacy of giving and generous support of the school. The decision was approved unanimously at the Feb. 27 Board of Visitors meeting.
