Auke Bay is proud to partner with Juneau Alaska Music Matters to provide 90 minutes of violin instruction per week to all kindergarten and 1st grade students. 

JAMM is an El Sistema-inspired music program that offers Juneau’s youth early access to instrumental instruction through school and community partnerships. Based upon cognitive research that show playing an instrument at an early age develops key skills for success.

JAMM invests in pre-school and kindergarten classes by working with teachers and local musicians to provide group instrumental lessons during the school day at least three times a week.
