19th Annual JOMPATHON ~ 8:00 am to 8:00 pm in JOMP's Recital Hall

    A Marathon Student Recital to raise funds for JOMP's financial aid program.

 

   This event is a powerful reminder of the value of the community music school philosophy. Seeing the outstanding work of our faculty and the enthusiasm of our students first-hand affirms how important music is to all of us. In addition to giving students a mid-year performance opportunity to mark their progress, JOMPATHON is a celebration of the school's mission "to foster community through accessible music education and performance."

 

   Approximately 20% of our students require financial aid to make their studies at JOMP possible (an average of $94,000 was awarded during each of the last 3 years). We raise these funds annually from foundations, corporations and individuals. Students gather friends and family members to sponsor their performances. 100% of the money raised will go towards this year's financial aid goal of $100,000.

 

You are welcome to stop by anytime to enjoy the music.

~ free admission ~ donations gratefully accepted ~
