CORE Events Guide

Our CORE Events are open to all our Membership Students. All are encouraged to participate, regardless of their age or playing level.

Fall Fest Open Mic

Fall Fest Open Mic is a relaxed, open-mic style event. There will be music and fun for the whole family. This event is free and open to family and friends of our students. The idea behind this event is to get students in front of people without the pressure that comes with a traditional recital. Students should expect to start picking out their Fall Fest performance selection soon after the school year starts. Teachers will facilitate event sign-up and song selection. Performer dress is casual and performers can arrive around the assigned hour. Audience dress is casual and the audience can come and go as they please. Families with multiple students will be grouped together.

Students can view their specific assigned slot by logging into the student portal.
