Our community gathered at the local Ellsworth Public Library for our second Instrument Petting Zoo despite a late spring snowstorm. 

March Highlights

While March was met with snowstorms and never-ending rain, our Community Outreach Programming sprung forward with all enthusiasm.

Our Petting Zoo brought together many from our community enabling children of all ages to explore musical instruments with our highly esteemed instructors.

The Midday Concert Series featuring the Baroque Trio directed and founded by our own Heidi Powell, produced our largest audience so far this year. 

March ended on a Crescendo with our Student Showcase hosted by the Northeast Harbor Library. Our students played beautifully. 

Community funding through private donations and grants makes events like these possible. We are so humbled to be a part of so many projects that enhance and promote community and social connections. Our dedicated donors and patrons are the reason we are here and continuing to develop our Community Outreach Programming. We look forward with great enthusiasm to the continued development of more programs like these in the coming years.

All of us at ECMI will greatly miss our friend Ann Benson, who passed away last month. Ann enthusiastically supported our mission to provide music education to people of all ages and abilities in our region and enjoyed attending ECMI concerts with her husband Fred.
