HARMONY Afterschool
PBHA’s HARMONY (Harvard and Radcliffe Musical Outreach to Neighborhood Youth) Afterschool aims to bring afterschool group music instruction to local Cambridge elementary school children, who might not otherwise have access to music enrichment opportunities. HARMONY Afterschool seeks to expand opportunities for students to grow musically, intellectually, and culturally.
Our curriculum centers on music appreciation and ensemble playing, providing a safe and collaborative environment that fosters intellectual curiosity, musical and academic achievement, and cultural and self-awareness. HARMONY Afterschool responds to the need for equitable music instruction, teaching the basics of music in a way that is interesting and engaging for students of all ages.

By working with HARMONY Afterschool, volunteers will have the opportunity to learn about music and education, contributing to the academic and cultural enrichment of elementary school students throughout the Cambridge Public Schools.
No musical background or teaching experience are necessary, as HARMONY Afterschool offers training at the beginning of the semester and curriculum ideas prior to each weekly session.
Volunteers are also welcome to set their own schedule throughout the semester.

We work directly with pre-existing afterschool programs at local elementary schools.
