Music in the Schools
Available to all public and private schools across Northern Illinois, the Chicago Federation of Musicians co-funds performances geared for preschool through high school students. Our musicians will perform one 45-minute concert or, alternately, two 30-minute programs for different audiences. Consider pairing up with another school nearby for two 30-minute performances scheduled within two hours! The CFM will match the cost dollar for dollar.
