SCHOOLS
As a result of increased cuts to arts programs, many schools have decided to contract independent music instructors to teach lessons/classes as an added option to families who wish to pursue a more comprehensive music education for their children. We develop music programs for a growing number of schools, community centers, and childcare centers who wish to offer on-site music lessons as an added service to their students.

CHILD-CARE CENTERS
Our child-care programs are always a big hit with families, and have helped boost enrollment for the centers we have worked with. Busy parents who are committed to providing weekly music lessons for their child are happy not only because they receive the highest quality private instruction at the center, but also because they have one less activity to take their child to. Also well-suited for childcare centers are our Kindermusik classes for children aged newborn to five years old. They are a fun and interactive way for children to get their start in music.

SERVICES WE CAN PROVIDE AT YOUR FACILITY

• PRIVATE/GROUP LESSONS
• PERFORMANCE ENSEMBLES (classical, jazz, rock/pop)
• INSTRUMENT SALES/RENTALS (delivered on site)
• BOOKS & SUPPLIES (delivered on site)
• KINDERMUSIK CLASSES (newborn to 7 yrs. old)

SCHEDULING & BILLING
Our programs have been designed to minimize administrative responsibility on the facility's part. In most cases, a letter is sent home to parents from the institution (along with informational materials that we provide) informing them of the new available Artisan music program offered at the facility. Once the room assignments and blocks of time for the lessons are determined, the facility can have those who are interested call us directly, or it can provide us with a list of interested students to contact. We will schedule students in the blocks of time provided and bill them independently. Some schools have preferred to maintain administrative and billing responsibility, in which case Artisan Music Studios would bill your institution rather than the individual student for services rendered. We will work with you to provide a system that best suits your needs.

For more information on any of these programs, contact us and we will send you our Schools & Child-Care Centers packet.

REFERRAL BENEFITS
We have a rapidly increasing number of institutions that we are working with, so ask your child's school or childcare center if they already have an Artisan after-school music program. If they don't, and would be interested in learning more about our programs, put them in contact with us and we will be happy to work with them in determining whether our programs may help in enhancing the quality of music education offered at their facility. In addition to the benefit of having your child take their music lessons at their own school, we will offer you a discount on your child's tuition for referring that school or childcare center to us. It's our way of saying thank- you for choosing Artisan, and valuing quality music education in your community.
