Project Description
Goals

In this three-part workshop, students in grades 3-8 will learn about the art of musical improvisation as a way of expressing themselves, creating community, exercising deep listening skills, and relating to the world around them. By practicing curiosity about sound and silence, students will be empowered to make music creatively and spontaneously without needing an instrument or an instructor.
