From our esteemed piano faculty member, Peter Dugas:
"The move to the Crewe Center is a great step forward for 240 Strings as it continues its growth and integration into the greater Portland music community."

🎻🏡 A New Home for 240 Strings!
Every lesson.
Every rehearsal.
Every concert.
Every standing ovation.
Beginning this fall, they'll all happen at the Crewe Center for Arts.
We can't wait to fill these halls with even more music.
❤️ Come grow with us.

🎉 240 Strings is celebrating our 10th anniversary! 🎻
And this week, there’s a special way to help support the next 10 years of accessible music education and performances.
Our fundraising platform, Givebutter, is gifting 240 Strings an extra $10 for every new monthly giving account created this week.
That means even a small recurring donation makes an even bigger impact right away.
Monthly support helps us sustain lessons, performances, outreach programs, and community events throughout the year — and this week your gift goes even further.
Thank you for being part of the 240 Strings community for the past 10 years. 💛 https://givebutter.com/240-strings

And a very special thank you to our alum Heitor Mantovani for stopping us all in our tracks with an unforgettable performance. Watching you play was a full-circle moment we will never forget. We are so incredibly proud. 🎻✨

Here's to the next 10 years of music, growth, and possibility.
