WA Schools Get a Big Boost
Through a very generous bequest to MHOF by a long-time Seattle resident and music lover, 50 schools will be selected to receive new instruments in Washington state over the next two years. This infusion of instruments will allow more kids to play, replace old and damaged instruments and strengthen music education in the state. All qualified Title 1 schools and after-school music programs serving kids from low-income families are invited to apply.
