OPEN ACCESS MUSIC PROGRAM

Primary Schools | Group Keyboard & Ukelele lessons | Pay What You Can

THE GOAL

To provide access to instrumental lessons to all families.

This strengthens and supports communities by nurturing brain health through music education.

A robust body of longitudinal neuroscience research shows that music education supports neuroplasticity, brain development, attention, memory, language learning, and long-term academic success.

We believe that these lifelong benefits should be accessible to every child.

Better learning creates better opportunities, and greater opportunities help build stronger, more connected communities.
