For over 20 years, our Children's Music Lessons program pairs students interested in private music instruction with instructors who are among the metropolitan area's finest musicians at convenient locations and times and at an affordable price.
The After school Music Lesson Program serves more than 150 children over two semesters, employs a broad array of professional instructors, and is ably run by a contracted administrator. Music recitals are performed twice each year with proceeds supporting need based scholarships.

The program is organized as a series of multi-disciplinary workshops for children entering grades 3-9 who have a keen interest in the visual and performing arts. As always, the workshops are staffed by artist-educators who are committed to their art and to working with young people. The program enrolls approximately 40 children and employs local artist instructors and a professional activities coordinator.
