Performing music before others is important! We don’t prefer the word performance, but making music for others and for the community is both an essential part of why we learn and create music and what drives us, and it is literally built into the foundation of everything we do at TIA.
Yes, we are still enrolling students in private lessons and group classes for in person instruction! Why? Because for so many people, it may be their only personal interaction, and many need that so much right now! We are following safety protocols, have a safety plan, and have had ZERO Covid-19 cases since the pandemic began, which we are grateful for.
We love music because we love people! This has been a tough year for so many! Thankfully, with your support, the music keeps on going! Many people have lost jobs this year and we hate that! And we need to hire a full-time operations person and would love to offer that job to someone, but need the resources so we can do so without increased tuition costs! Can you help us create that job?

TIA has with your help created 11 currently held jobs with our nine faculty members and two admin staff and it is our goal in 2021 to add a new full-time job for an operations manager. To do this, we need your help. Help us hire a new #operationsmanager for TIA by donating toward our goal of $30,000 (1/2 of their first year’s salary). The new operations manager’s first responsibility will be raising the remainder of their first year’s salary and then begin planning all that is necessary to keep TIA running smoothly and taking us to the next level! As the end of 2020 approaches, we would be honored if you would consider TIA for your end of year giving.
