Community Group Programs

Melody Mart is proud to support and promote community events in the south suburbs and Chicagoland area. These events offer a valuable opportunity for musicians to network, showcase their talents, and support their fellow musicians. We encourage all our students and community members to participate in these events to enhance their own musicianship and contribute to the local music scene.

Please note: To ensure that everyone is prepared for attending these performances, we recommend reading our blogs on traditional event etiquette. This will help you make the most of your experience and show respect for the performers and fellow audience members.
