Program:
Music Haven
Location:
New Haven, Connecticut
What They Do:
Music Haven empowers and connects young people through exceptional tuition-free music education, mentoring, and performance by resident musicians in the heart of New Haven, giving all kids a chance to play.
At Music Haven, young musicians study with and are mentored by members of the resident ensemble, the Haven String Quartet, or one of their other full-time conservatory-trained professional Resident Musicians, from when they are in first, second, or third grade until they graduate from high school.
Their Impact:
Through donations from generous supporters like you, SpreadMusicNow is able to fund Music Haven and help them to:
- Provide free weekly one-on-one lessons and group classes, including instruments and supplies
- Give all teaching by conservatory-trained professional musicians with master’s degrees
- Offer ensembles, concert trips, workshops and guest artists
- Help their students develop focus and discipline and other non-cognitive skills that research has found are key to long-term academic and career success
