Harmonize Peoria is a 501(c)(3) organization dedicated to making music accessible to all youth. They offer a variety of engaging activities for young musicians. Some of the highlights include:
1. Music Workshops: Currently, a Free Guitar Care Workshop is being offered. This workshop will teach the basics of guitar care and help children bond with their instruments. You can find the form here: Guitar Care Workshop
2. Pay-What-You-Can-Afford Lessons: Harmonize Peoria works closely with the local music community to offer voice and instrument lessons on a variety of instruments and music styles. Often instrument loans can be provided to students in need. The lesson inquiry form can be found here: Harmonize Peoria Lessons
3. Musical Instrument Petting Zoos: These events are a great way to let your child try a new instrument and see which one sparks their interest!
4. Garage Band Open Stages: During the summer, a weekly open stage is held, geared towards those under age 21, but all ages are welcome. It is a free, family-friendly event. This unique program has a different local band hosting each week. Participants can get onstage and join the band or do a solo act! It is a great way for kids and teens to get their first chance at performing for a live audience. Even if you don’t want to get onstage, these free concerts feature some great artists and are a fun night out.
