Jay Schadler

grit and greatness of life. The deeper you look into reality, the more mystery there is
to see. Jay’s art is a lot like that.

“We are so blessed to have an incredible resource like PMAC in Portsmouth!
Our kids love the PMAC music programs they receive at school through the innovative
partnership between St. Pats and PMAC, and since I’ve joined the Board I’ve started
ukulele lessons and am working on a six song set for family
sing-a-longs around the campfire this summer. Fun!”

“Just walk in the door of PMAC and feel the energy!
It is contagious! I was first involved as a donor, and now am also
