All New Piano Lab!

We are looking to upgrade our piano lab and we are super excited about it! Our piano lab currently serves 11 classes a week (that’s around 50 students or so)! And our keyboards and stands have helped up very well considering! They are functional, fun, and effective.

But some are beginning to wobble a bit, and we have so many students moving beyond the beginner stage to needing more keys (full size keyboards) and pedals!

These digital pianos are full size, have pedals, weighted keys, and will be so much more fun for students to play! They will also be able to play in a standard position on a bench (we will need to get those as well).

Would you consider helping us with the upgrade? Any gift would help. Just click the “Support us” button on our website.
