ANY GIVEN CHILD CERTIFIED: Designated arts provider for Arts for Any Given Child - Sacramento. Participating schools may request an eligible offering from this provider as their Arts Exposure Experience.

I received my Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees in music from the Eastman School of Music. For the last 26 years, I’ve presented programs at TK-8 schools in the Sacramento area. These programs are based on the California Visual and Performing Arts Framework, and feature cultural activities from West Africa, Ancient Mesoamerica, China, Vietnam, Indonesia, and the Middle East. In 1998, I was honored with a Music Fellowship Award from the Sacramento Metropolitan Arts Commission in the Arts Education category. In addition, I have designed/programmed online musical resources at www.philtulga.com, which is the #1 rated website by Google for “music activities and arts integration lessons” – 7 years in a row. I’ve taught Music for Children at ARC, and Jazz Studies courses at CSUS. As a musician, I’ve performed with the Sacramento Philharmonic, Broadway Sacramento, Capital Jazz Project, and jazz/pop greats including Ray Charles, Ella Fitzgerald, Tony Bennett and Lady Gaga.
