The series is a made-for-kids program which introduces young ears to classical music and other genres through fun and explorative performances.
Promoting a love for music while encouraging life-long creativity and artistic growth, the Music JuiceBox Series creates relevant ways to connect the arts with young generations.
The series is offered free of charge to elementary schools around the Clark County School District. Our program has proudly reached over 12,000 fourth and fifth graders across 56 schools—most Title I schools—in small assembly sizes of 150 and fewer.
We thank the Las Vegas Science & Technology Festival for their past generous underwriting in addition to the Nevada Arts Council and the National Endowment for the Arts.
“The Music JuiceBox Series provided a professional program for my elementary music students. They made connections between the arts and science. Students were inspired by the presentation and eager to further discuss and explore the relationship between music and the science of sound. Thank you for your well done program.”
Notes with a Purpose is dedicated to bringing music to far-reaching places. NWP partnered with the Las Vegas Rescue Mission, a homeless shelter, food pantry, and recovery program in downtown Las Vegas (this program was formerly called Wednesdays Live at the Mission). Students performers are provided opportunities to develop altruism, community awareness, confidence in public speaking, and satisfaction in their own artistic endeavors. Read about two experiences below.
“Being a part of Mission: Music Live is the best opportunity I have ever received as a musician and as a person. My involvement has thoroughly changed my perspective on life, showing me what music can truly do for an individual.”
— Dejan Djukic, former high school student volunteer
“I was a resident at Las Vegas Rescue Mission in phase 1 of the drug and alcohol recovery program. It was April 2016, and I was not too happy about having to attend a concert of classical music. I’d never experienced classical music in my life - I grew up in a household full of drugs and partying. Classical music was the furthest thing from what my life had been. After I saw the performance, I was absolutely amazed and started tuning into classical music every night. I still turn to classical music when I’m in times of need, rage, sorrow or overwhelming happiness. Dr. Le's introduction of classical music has played a pivotal role in my recovery and has definitely tamed this beast's soul.”
