That’s why Soundscapes provides music education and performance opportunities to students on the Virginia Peninsula from 2nd grade through age 25 through free after-school music programs, summer programs, and community ensembles, including Peninsula Youth Orchestra and Peninsula Youth Jazz Band.
We put our mission into action! See how in our latest annual report.
