Intonation Music Workshop empowers children to become rock stars on every stage in life through innovative music education. Using donated instruments and a unique pop-band curriculum, our after-school and summer music program provides kids age 6-17 in Chicago's underserved communities with access to instruction and performance opportunities in a safe and positive environment, sparking for many a life-changing sense of accomplishment and belonging. Our students learn to express themselves musically, at the same time developing essential life skills such as cooperation, practice, risk-taking, and setting and meeting goals. IMW Instructors work closely with the students as they explore each aspect of the pop band format - drums, bass, guitar, keyboards, and vocals - before choosing their niche and forming a band with fellow students. The bands are then mentored through weeks of preparation for a community performance.
