We host 4 events per year for students from Central Vermont, providing our youngest artists the chance to share their work - music compositions, poetry, prose, and artwork - with their peers. Opportunities to present work to their peers are fundamental to the development of the young creator. Youth are also given the opportunity to curate and run production for these events. We are giving real life performance experience in a public music venue.

We offer dozens of free student tickets to our concerts each season, through the generous support of sponsors. We program interactive performances that appeal to a wide age range from youth to elders. Our events often include the opportunity for hands-on engagement and discussion with the artists.

We have partnered for many years with Music-COMP, an online mentoring program for K-12 student composers. In April 2024, the TURNensemble of professional musicians presented their culminating performance, Opus 38, performing the works of 25 student composers at a recital at Elley Long Music Center in Colchester.
