Welcome to
The Front Porch
A Nonprofit Dedicated to Connecting All of Us Through Music
Where music meets community.
At The Front Porch, we’re more than just a music school. We connect people through music. Our focus on music education extends outside of the walls of our Charlottesville location and into the heart of the city through our Roots & Wings outreach program. Our intimate listening room venue hosts concert experiences that will change your life. And our open jam program draws players from throughout Central Virginia.
Roots & Wings
Our outreach program, Roots & Wings, brings music to underserved communities, enriching the lives of hundreds of children and strengthening the cultural fabric that unites our city.
“Having Front Porch come each week has enriched our children’s learning experience. We have children who have developmental or speech delays that are now dancing and singing more and getting more involved in the classroom! These are huge accomplishments for our children, and we’re so happy to see it!”
-Ms. Kristie, MACAA Head Start preschool teacher
