Summer Music Educators Workshop
Jump to section:
What does great music teaching in the classroom look like? How can music teachers deepen their artistry, practice inquiry, and become stronger musicians? Join K–12 music educators from across the country to explore these ideas and expand the impact of your work with young musicians. In this workshop, we will reinvigorate your creativity, explore Carnegie Hall’s Great Music Teaching Framework, and invest in your own artistry through music-making opportunities.
This four-day workshop will take place in Carnegie Hall’s Resnick Education Wing. The registration fee for this workshop is $75. Travel and accommodations are the responsibility of the participant. Partial travel stipends are available for qualifying individuals after acceptance into the workshop.
