An instrument drive sponsored by the Buffalo State College Music Department and Music is Art, a nonprofit initiative led by Robby Takac of the Goo Goo Dolls, is being held through May 12. New and used instruments will be donated to area schools, in particular Buffalo State’s after-school music program with Campus West. Music is Art donates time and funds to make necessary repairs to instruments. Takac has held previous instrument drives throughout Western New York, giving students the chance to find something magical and musical in their lives.

Donation bins are located at the Burchfield Penney Art Center; Campus House; the Music Department, Rockwell Hall 203; and Campus West. Instruments can be donated during regular business or school hours.
