Branches is an after school program where students from all backgrounds can come to study music. We offer a safe and enriching musical space for students to learn an instrument, grow in community, build connections, and express creativity through the arts.

Branches has improved my child’s confidence, and as a former musician, I love talking about her music with her and love seeing her love for music be nurtured
