A few weeks later, we’re still smiling thinking about the El Sistema USA Conference in Houston!

Kidznotes was proud to be represented by our Executive Director, Dr. Thomas Howard, who also serves on the @elsistemausa Board, along with two of our wonderful Teaching Artists. It was such a meaningful time to connect with friends and colleagues from across the country, share ideas, and celebrate the music-making, learning, and community that bring us all together. ___________________________________________________________________________________ Unas semanas después, todavía sonreímos al recordar la Conferencia de El Sistema USA en Houston. Kidznotes tuvo el orgullo de estar representado por nuestro Director Ejecutivo, Dr. Thomas Howard, quien también forma parte de la Junta Directiva de El Sistema USA, junto con dos de nuestros maravillosos Artistas Docentes. Fue un momento muy significativo para conectar con amistades y colegas de todo el país, compartir ideas y celebrar la música, el aprendizaje y la comunidad que nos unen.
