Miles Bonham was so excited to team up with Education Through Music (@etmonline ) and Guitar Center Music Foundation (@guitarcenterfoundation ) to give the gift of music!
Two schools in the Bronx received 1,000 ukuleles and 3 DJ decks and best of all they got to create music together!
🎶 Big news! ETM has partnered with @tededucation and @YouTube to launch "Think Like a Musician" — a new educational series that explores the creative mindset of working musicians through artist interviews, animation, and interactive learning.
Episode 1, featuring @gravesmontgomery , is now live — along with a special interactive app and learning materials developed by ETM!
At ETM, we believe music education should be accessible, engaging, and rooted in real artistic experiences — and this series brings that belief to life.

Meet Nadia Cruz, Principal of the Young Voices Academy of The Bronx. She spoke to us about the role of music in the school, the impact it’s having on the community, and why music matters to her 🎶
“What holds us back is not the demand for music education — it’s the funding to meet it.”
In this in-depth interview with @valiantceo , ETM's CEO, Dr. Janice Weinman, reflects on both the urgency and the opportunity in expanding access to arts education across NYC’s public schools. From strengthening teacher pipelines to demonstrating measurable academic impact, she shares how ETM is building a scalable model for lasting change.
At its core, our mission is simple but powerful - to ensure every child has the chance to learn, grow, and thrive through high-quality music education.
