The Cherniavsky Junior Club for the Performing Arts encourages young people's love for the performing arts through its funding program, Cherniavsky's Mr. Music Fund. The Fund provides subsidies to assist students in grades K-12 throughout the province of British Columbia to attend classical music, ballet, and opera performances in their community.

Jan Cherniavsky, a world-renowned concert pianist, founded the Cherniavsky Junior Club for the Performing Arts in 1967. Cherniavsky's Mr. Music Fund program has been enthusiastically received province wide, helping send hundreds of thousands of school-aged children to attend classical performances over the past 50 years. As Jan had hoped, the program has exposed children to the performing arts and allowed them to embrace music and the arts in their own lives.

The Cherniavsky Junior Club for the Performing Arts is run by a small group of passionate volunteers, many of whom are descendants of Jan Cherniavsky. Demand for the Mr. Music program continues to outpace available funds and we need your donations to continue Jan's "Mr. Music" legacy for many more generations to come.
