Cultivating Musical Excellence in Appalachia
Our goal is to nourish a vibrant community where musicians of all ages develop skills, connect with mentors, and celebrate the rich musical heritage of America and the Appalachian region.
Musical Growth and Community
Concrete actions to foster musical excellence and nurture talent in our area.
Music Education Programs
Engage with tailored lessons and workshops that inspire creativity and skill development for all ages and levels.
Performance Opportunities
Host jam sessions and events that allow musicians to interact with other players and audiences.
Collaborative Network
Connect students and teachers, players and listeners, musicians and other musicians to enrich the musical landscape.
Our Approach
Our plans to nurture musical talent through individual lessons, workshops, and performance.
Step One: Connect Students with teachers
We will begin by recruiting students and then matching them with teachers in classes and individual lessons
Step Two: Feed the Music
Provide resources for continuing education for all levels. Some players may need assistance with acquiring or repairing an instrument. Some players may need to take the step into teaching to improve, some may just need to play with others, everyone needs musical interaction.
Step Three: Perform and Excel
This is the goal of the program: Get players playing, get people enjoying, get local businesses thriving in the music district.
