Since 'The Last Repair Shop,' a film featuring Bagmanyan and three other instrument technicians, won an Oscar for best documentary short film at the Academy Awards on March 10, people across the country have been donating to a fund to boost instrument repairs and school music programs in Los Angeles.
The school district's repair shop is believed to be the last large in-house program of its kind in the country. Since 1959, it has been offering free instruments and repairs across the district, which today has 540,000 students in more than 1,000 schools.
