HOME VISITS AND AUDITIONS!
We are casting for members of United by Music!
Are you or someone you know MUSICALLY TALENTED and have developmental challenges such as Autism?  We’d love to talk with you about our program!  We find musically talented people to work together to create band performances on stage for the general public. We do this by pairing our United by Music artists with professional musicians who serve as mentors to our selected artists.
The United by Music team creates opportunities for our artists to perform with professional musicians on stage at festivals, clubs and other events!  
Call or write if you’d like to find out more about becoming a United by Music North America artist, mentor, volunteer, sponsor or donor!
