02/05/25 - MusicNC is proud to announce its sponsorship of Music In Schools Month for 2025. This program is focused on highlighting the importance of music education for all children and works to illustrate the benefits that music in schools brings to students of all ages.

This year, Music In Schools Month will celebrate it's 40th anniversary with the theme of “United Through Music”. This theme serves to reiterate that music transcends language barriers, making it a universal form of communication. People from various cultural backgrounds can find common ground through music, as it often conveys emotions and messages that resonate on a human level.

Music advocates and educators in North Carolina understand how music can affect us all and comfort us through difficult times. Between the COVID years and the devastating hurricanes in 2018 and 2024, it is vital that we embrace art and music as a venue that can bring communities together.

MusicNC will continue to work with our partners, NC Lobbyist Ashely Perkinson, and the newly formed NC Music Office to schedule music performances for the month of March.

More information about this year’s activities can be found on the NCMO website.
