Do you want to know how you can make a difference locally in music & music education?
You can be involved as little or as much as you like with music advocacy.
Start small and do little things that matter and make a difference, then advocate with an experienced voice. Expose your children to musical instruments at an early age so they feel comfortable with music and musical instruments. Don't feel you have to invest a large sum of money to start. Many objects in your home can be used to make music. Share the joy of making music with your child; it is something that will stay with them throughout their lives. If you are one of many who value music & want that value to be expressed, find your voice through music advocacy. Again, it is not always the one big thing you do, but the many little things many people do.
If you want to do something more locally, visit this website.
