MAYSO and Northstar Strings

Mankato Area Youth Symphony Orchestra and the Northstar Strings programs are both offered in Mankato to all eligible string students (please talk with your teacher regarding your eligibility). We would love to see a group of our students take advantage of this great opportunity. Perhaps we could arrange car pooling to make this a possibility!

Rehearsals are Saturday mornings in Mankato at the Performing Arts Center on the Campus of Minnesota State University. North Star Strings meets from 10:00 – 11:15 and MAYSO from 9:30-12:00. You can check their website for more information. This is a wonderful opportunity to enhance your musical education even more. Check it out!!!

Youth Scholarship/Mentor Grants

If you have a 7 – 12 grader they are eligible for a grant to put towards lessons. Every year Prairie Lakes Regional Arts Council awards grants for up to $300/student. It is worth a try. They are very supportive of our program and our students and we are deeply grateful for their continued encouragement.  Here is information you need:

  • September 1 – deadline for past grant recipients to submit final reports
  • October 1 – deadline for new grants to be submitted to PLRAC

Please check their website at www.plrac.org for all the forms and information regarding their student grants. Your teacher will be more than willing to help fill out your information and give you suggestions.
