Become a Grow Music Buddy! Music education offers a wide range of benefits that extend beyond the realm of music itself. It enhances cognitive, emotional, and social development, fosters creativity and discipline, and contributes to personal growth, well-being, and a sense of belonging. We wish to extend these benefits to more young people in our community!
A Music Buddy is a friend who sponsors a young person's musical growth. Scholarships support talented and driven students who have been recommended by teachers or counselors for music lessons but do not currently possess the financial resources.
What does music education cost? •$30 gives an individual lesson to a budding musician. •$30/month gives a student access to weekly Group Classes. •$60 brings a professional clinician into the schools to work directly with students. Crescendo Club is our outreach program that provides clinicians to help strengthen our music programs and empower ALL students to be the best versions of themselves. •$60/month sponsors a student in the Mentorship Program. Mentees are high school students who learn best teaching practices by assisting lead teaching artists. •$90 gives a package of three individual lessons to a budding musician who has been recommended for lessons. •$90/month sponsors weekly lessons. Scholarships are for students who have been recommended, are already demonstrating exceptional motivation, responsibility, and desire to learn, but lack the financial resources.
