Join OMA Kid Bands and Band Workshops
Spooky Scary Songs Fall 2024!

Thanks for dropping by to see our after-school offerings. We're excited to offer pickup groups from Franklin and Love Elementary Schools. Please reach out with details needed for OMA Team members to sign students out/confirm pickup details. 

Join us as we develop mindful musicianship playing in ensembles, improvising, studying form, melody, chords and many more possiblities!

Kids build teamwork skills, have fun, learn rehearsal strategies, and develop their musician's mindfulness on the way to seasonal concerts while studying one or more instruments from the modern bandstand.
