Our Student Pathways in Practice

A journey in music can take many different shapes and forms. Some students are interested in being Performing Musicians, in winning competitions or being competitive for admission to music conservatory. But many others are Community Musicians who make music for the kinship and camaraderie of working with other people. Some are Citizen Artists, who think about how their music affects the world or their sense of social justice: artistic activists, teachers, music therapists, or liturgical musicians. And many more are Musical Explorers, in an early stage of their journey learning about all the richness that music has to offer, either through learning multiple instruments or in exploring multiple genres.

How does your relationship to music shape the direction of a potential career in the arts? Join us for a conversation featuring representatives from local arts organizations ProjectSTEP, Zumix, and Castle of our Skins and learn more about their personal journeys and career experiences that align with each of these musical pathways.

Speakers:

Josue Gonzalez, Executive Director, ProjectSTEP

Corey DePina, Program Director, Zumix

Dr. Ciyadh Wells, Executive Director, Castle of our Skins

AJ Gaudreau, Music Therapist, CMCB

Moderators: Rachel Chao and Jared Field (CMCB)

We hope you will be able to join us for this event, either in-person or through our Zoom broadcast!
