Help me give my students some updated shelving and storage. Our instruments sit around the edges of the walls and in some cabinets that have been here since the '50s

My Project

Over the past three years, we have thoughtfully expanded and updated our collection of classroom instruments. Now, it’s time to give these wonderful resources the home they deserve!

To maintain an organized, welcoming classroom, everything needs a place to belong.

A new shelving system will provide accessible, orderly storage for our smaller instruments while making it easier for students to find what they need and return materials to their proper place.

This storage solution will not only help us maximize our classroom space, but also keep our instruments organized, protected, and ready to inspire creativity. Best of all, the clean, modern design will bring a trendy and polished look to our music classroom!

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
