- Students learn marimba and how to play together as a group, but more importantly how to be a good teammate, and how to be a great community member.
- Each session, we revisit concepts over and over through time; together with our students, we deepen our knowledge and experience through this spiral learning.
- Once or twice each year, students have the opportunity to bring a friend during our Bring-a-Friend week and learn the #songoftheseason during our One Song, Once Community campaign.
- On the rare occasion, classes are invited to perform at our concert series concerts, but all student groups are invited to play at our annual Spring Student Festival in May.
The following are on-going groups for adults. If you are interested in becoming a member of one of them, please send us a message!
