NAMM Foundation COVID-19 Resources
Resources to Inspire Music Making, Learning and Teaching
All of us at The NAMM Foundation express our concern and support for everyone that is experiencing the realities of the current global health crisis. Teaching and learning music can continue and even thrive through the remarkable tools, resources and people that are engaging in music online.
Provided resources have been created by The NAMM Foundation (webinars) and curated by NAMM Foundation grantees and partner organizations. Should you wish to submit an online music learning resource that addresses current and evolving needs, please contact us.
