The West Michigan Symphony Link Up program (a nationally recognized curriculum by Carnegie Hall) brings music and melody to your classroom students in grades 3-5. Link Up draws on concert repertoire and culminates with students performing in person at the Frauenthal Theater in Muskegon on May 13, 2025.

- A highly interactive Link Up concert on May 13, 2025. (students play recorder, sing, and move)
