We are excited to have the support of so many in our community. Northeast Iowa School of Music is well-known for its fidelity to its mission: to make the life-changing benefits of music education and enrichment accessible to all through instruction, performance, and outreach.
In 2018, he Iowa Arts Council selected Northeast Iowa School of Music as one of its new Cultural Leadership Partners with a total award of $30,000 disbursed as $10,000 per year for three years.

We have also received an Iowa Arts & Culture Emergency Relief Grant in the amount of $4,500 for COVID-19 recovery efforts.
