WHOLE NOTE
The Whole Note program provides music education to restricted-income youth in Kamloops. The program supports young musicians with private lessons, mentorship, and scholarships to select Kamloops Music Collective programs. Whole Note applications are accepted from students in Grades 6 through 12 and the intake happens in the Fall.
​
Youth who participate in the program are encouraged to share their love of music and the knowledge they gain through the program with others in the community.
How it Works
Here's what students receive once they are accepted in the program.
A series of up to 10 music lessons (instrument or voice) with accredited music teachers in the community to a maximum $280​
