Did you know? April is the month of the military child! 💜 Resilient, strong and adaptable, military children bloom wherever they land. Sometimes we’re lucky and they land here in the Red River Valley for a while, and they find NVYO! 🎶
NVYO is committed to being a welcoming and supportive place for all our musicians, and we are grateful to be part of a community where our students and families come to us with such an interesting variety of experiences. Our “military kids” and families have always, since our very first year, provided us with fresh eyes and ears, and then exciting next adventures to hear about if/when they leave. Whether it’s for one year or many, however long we are privileged enough to have a local military family involved in NVYO, we’ll provide a place for them to make music, make friends, and make a difference. (We also do our best to help them create new connections wherever they go next!) We 💜 our military families.

(Edit: posted on April 1st!) Today is the perfect day to announce an exciting new side venture for NVYO: film production! 🎥 😱 We are extra thrilled to announce the first of these special “NVYO Presents” (patent pending) movies, a new installment of the Home Alone™️ series, “Home Alone ™️: Lost in the Music!” 🎶 😬
Critics rave: “I laughed! I cried! Where did you say we were starting again? I can’t find rehearsal letter B…”
There is definitely an award of some kind forthcoming, we just are not sure what. 🏆
Showing April 1st only on select streaming services!!!
