MAMM Helps Maine Kids Rock…Online

The Maine Academy of Modern Music is one of the fastest-growing non-profits in Maine. Think of it as Maine's School of Rock. And in true rock and roll fashion, MAMM is making sure that NOTHING stops these kids from rocking out and making music with remote lessons.

Jeff Shaw from MAMM wrote: "Our remote lessons are off to a fantastic start! We’re using a combination of Google Classrooms and Google Hangout Meets."

It's so important that our kids continue to get the scholastic and artistic nourishment they want and need.

Kudos to the amazing instructors who are keeping MAMM going!

"At MAMM, we believe in the transformational power of music to enrich quality of life. MAMM provides a healthy, positive, and fun outlet for creative expression and an environment to practice important life skills. Our core values are rooted in the important role music plays in cultivating harmony, resilience, leadership, and community.

• HARMONY: We teach our students that together we can achieve great things. Music is an important tool that promotes communication, teamwork, and cooperation.

• RESILIENCE: In the belief that learning from failure makes us stronger: each new note, chord, beat, or measure provides an opportunity to get it right or improve.

• LEADERSHIP: Through collaboration and performance, students develop confidence in themselves, their voice, and their ability to make an impact on the world.

• COMMUNITY: Music brings people together. MAMM programs and events connect students to their communities, foster relationships through shared experiences, and engage audiences across Maine."
