to an amazing moment when our talented students took their music across the globe! 🎻 In October 2018, the teens of Chicago West Community Music Center performed in Paris, France, as part of a special colloquium at the University of Chicago Paris.

Our young musicians showcased their skills on an international stage, proving that Chicago’s cultural influence knows no bounds. From Garfield Park to the City of Lights, their journey continues to inspire us all!
