Grades 4-8
Is your kid into music? Do they want to create their own music...someday? Well thanks to a grant from Music Matters, that day could be closer than they think! Thanks to the generous support of Music Matters, the library is able to offer composition classes taught by local music teacher, Ms. Kuhlow! Kids will learn to use the library's new Midi Controller (a digital keyboard) and educational software to compose music during this 8 week course. These amazing resources really do make it possible for your child to compose their own arrangements and hear them played back digitally. Sign up today! Sponsored by Music Matters, Inc..
