Thank You for a Wonderful Summer 2026!
This summer, Hoff-Barthelson was filled with music, creativity, and community as students developed new skills, explored their artistic interests, and formed lasting connections. We are grateful to the students, families, faculty, and staff who made the 2026 Summer Arts Program such a joyful and inspiring experience.
Throughout the program, students participated in a wide range of activities designed to encourage creativity, build confidence, and support artistic growth, including:
- Group Lessons in strings, winds, brass, guitar, piano, and percussion
- Ensemble Experiences including orchestra, wind ensemble, jazz band, chamber music, piano ensembles, and Crossroads Ensemble
- Creative Courses such as music technology, composition, music and movement, world drumming, chimes, creative keyboard, and visual arts
- Foundational Music Study that strengthened students’ skills in music literacy, history, listening, and rhythm
- Performances that gave students opportunities to share their progress, collaborate with others, and grow more confident on stage
Guided by Hoff-Barthelson’s exceptional faculty of professional teaching artists, students received personalized instruction in a welcoming and supportive environment where musicians and artists of every experience level could learn, create, and thrive.
Looking Ahead to Summer 2027
Planning is already underway for another summer of music, creativity, friendship, and discovery.
Please check back in January 2027 for program details, session dates, and registration information.
Continue Learning Throughout the Year
The creativity and connection do not have to end with summer. Hoff-Barthelson offers outstanding year-round opportunities—including private lessons, group classes, ensembles, musicianship courses, and performances—for students of all ages and experience levels.
