This fourteen-week program is designed to introduce children and teens to the wonderful world of music through the use of unique interactive computer music programs, musicianship classes, private instruction and performance activities. Our instructors worked with the children and teens to promote learning and experiencing music without intimidation. The program concludes with concert open to the public. The unique and multifaceted immersion program is designed not only to be fun and exciting, but also to help the students develop a deepened sense of musical phrase, structure and form, as well as improve their performance skills. Next year, we will also be providing a new musical theater component to the program Monday through Friday and a Music Program for Toddlers will be scheduled in the mornings starting in January, 2008.

*Mystery Park Arts developed its first initiative serving children in summer, 2006, with separate instrumental and choir programs in City of Miami parks. The camp concluded with a Mayor's Summer Renaissance concert open to the public at the Miami-Dade College Wolfson Auditorium. During this school year, we have been successfully running a Music for Youth after-school program which meets twice weekly at South Pointe Elementary School.
It is well-documented that music education programs can successfully address diverse academic and social needs, such as: advancing academic achievement due to transferable study skills and enhanced self-esteem; developing attention skills, self-expression and physical dexterity; broadening one’s understanding and appreciation of the world; and improving abilities such as self-discipline, collaboration, communication with others, and creativity. 1
Music education opportunities are increasingly limited within the schools – especially for youth whose test scores are low – as arts electives are reduced. Quality music education outside of school is even more difficult to find, and still more difficult to afford, despite a variety of city and private programs. Our mission is to make music (and arts) education available to all.
