The inaugural program will take place in the Town of Irmo, South Carolina, from April 8 to April 13, 2024.
Supported by a Connected Communities Grant from Central Carolina Community Foundation and funded in part by the South Carolina Arts Commission, the program focuses on making classical music experiences accessible to the community. The week-long event includes free performances, educational activities, and collaborations designed to enrich the lives of individuals through the transformative power of symphonic music.
“The Music in My Neighborhood initiative centers around providing live music experiences in a variety of spaces for diverse audiences,” said Susan Cafferty, Director of Education and Community Outreach. “The SC Phil believes that everyone deserves the opportunity to enjoy high-quality live music experiences; therefore, all the performances will be inclusive, accessible, and free.”
Throughout the week, SC Philharmonic musicians will visit schools, engaging with students and providing educational programs to enhance and supplement classroom instruction. The program also includes public events featuring different ensembles at various locations in Irmo.
