☀️ AND Summer Camp dates are here! Save the date and stay tuned for more information. We can’t wait for another summer of music at Prelude Academy of the Arts!

Tim Graber of made more than just sound panels, he made works of art! Thank you for making our studio more functional AND more beautiful, we are so happy with the result!

🎉New Year, New Classes! Registration is now open for Musikgarten and Beginning Violin.

🎵Musikgarten (ages 15 months-3 years old): This class is designed for children and their grown-ups to experience the joy of music making together. This curriculum will help to develop your child’s language, singing, dancing, and listening skills. They’ll also explore a variety of musical instruments! While our movement activities may look like pure fun, they help instill body awareness and control, coordination, and the joy of musical movement. 

🎻Beginning Violin: This class is for ages 4-6 to enjoy with a caregiver. This class includes all materials (including instrument rental) and lays the foundation for beginning violin technique. This class uses the research-based “Wee Violin” curriculum by Crystal Boyack and is complimentary to the Suzuki method of violin pedagogy.

Did you know that plans for our summer camps begin in January? Dates for our Time-Travel themed camps will be posted soon!
