MUSIC FOR YOUTH

Through its “Music for Youth: Engaging Young People” initiative, the Wilmington Symphony Orchestra provides a set of seven unduplicated youth education and outreach programs that broaden the reach and accessibility of symphonic music to children and their families. The Wilmington Symphony Orchestra’s education programs give children and young adults access to excellent performances, cultural experiences and educational opportunities.
