Make Music NOLA(MMN)is a music-for-social change program located in the 9th Ward and Central City. MMN is an after school program, which runs Monday-Thursday from 3:30 -6:00 PM throughout the school year. The program consists of excellent music instruction, implemented by a diverse staff of professional musicians and college students; opportunities to participate in workshops with guest artists and local musicians; and community relevant performances. Additionally, the children receive a healthy snack, help with homework, an evening meal, and transportation to those who need it. Currently over 50 children from local elementary schools are enrolled in the program. We are located at Arise Academy, KIPP Leadership Primary, and Edgar P. Harney Elementary
