Congratulations to all of our amazing students from Marvin Ward Elementary, Jefferson Elementary and Diggs-Latham Elementary. To all of the faculty, administrators, and school staff who make our program possible, THANK YOU!

And a big thanks to Intergenerational Center for Arts and Wellness for hosting our Seminario. It is such a beautiful space.

And lastly, we want to thank all of the parents, families and friends who came out today to hear these young musicians show off their hard work. And thanks especially to our parents and guardians: thank you for supporting your students’ love of music. Thank you for the after-school pick ups and the “I forgot my instrument!”s, and the reminders to practice, and for making our classes the best they can be. We appreciate you!! (And a special shout out to our parent volunteers today— YOU ROCK!!!)
