Musica Franklin,

Greenfield, MA 01376

"I absolutely love Musica Franklin. I've worked with them a number of times as a performer and I have always been so impressed by how kind, professional, and qualified the staff are. And I am constantly BLOWN AWAY by the work they do with the kids. Such beautiful music and happy, proud, confident faces! And their commitment to diversity, equity and inclusion is evident in everything they do, from their policies, to the way they run their events and programs, to the way they interact with the children and the public. I highly recommend Musica Franklin to any parent looking to get their child into a music program."

"I love the family nights with guest musical artists, the opportunities for students to develop leadership capabilities and performance presence, the clear devotion of the teaching artists and all the staff to the mission of providing quality musical instruction to children who would otherwise not have such opportunities."

"I've found the program to be rewarding and challenging for my child. I enjoyed that there is a social justice and social change component to the program. Performances are about once a month, and they often have other musicians as guest speakers. The end of year celebrations are fun, and the kids in the program get to shine. This, I think, is a great confidence boost for them as they get to be in community with kids looking for cultural and social validation and belonging. Truly appreciate the program, the teachers and staff, and the parents who work towards making the Musica Franklin experience a success. #violin #music #socialjustice"
