Connecting Through Music: The Adult Zoom Get-Together

 

This annual event is where adult students get to play and not perform. We understand that as adult students, playing at a children’s music recital is not ideal. Therefore, Imagine Music Inc. hosts annual adult get-togethers where adult students can may perform or just come and listen. Not only is it a great way for adults to hear others play, but they can also socialize, share music tips and practice strategies. All music levels welcome!

Adult Zoom Get Together
April 10, 2021
Time: 1 pm – 3 pm
The Zoom invite wil be emailed to participating students.
