OUR MISSION
We take very seriously our mission, to bring the best cultural experiences from around the world to our home town communities and students.
Our work began many years ago through affiliations with amazing organizations like The Miami Bach Society.
We are committed to expanding our mission to enrich the lives of South Floridians through our outreach programs and events.
Please consider becoming a part of this magnificent movement to keep the arts alive in our communities.
We look forward to your support, views and comments, and seeing you at our upcoming events.
Our Story
It is our vision to provide audiences the opportunity to experience, right in their own community, enlightening and entertaining events performed by world-renowned artists, while also incorporating into special programs comprised of local artists and students, offering them a professional platform to perfect their art.
A priority for this organization is our two-tier outreach program. First, an educational outreach program to area schools presented by visiting artists where students’ educations are enhanced through music. Often subjects such as languages, world history and geography are included in the presentations. Music is a perfect avenue to cultivate a young persons’ appetite for knowledge.
The second tier of the outreach is a hospital program; artists who are performing in the area will give short performances for the hospital population (patients and staff alike). It is our aim to provide much needed uplifting diversion for those who greatly need a respite to distract, de-stress, and regain energy.
