Buddy Band
Summer 2023
Buddy Band is an inclusive, musical group that aims to break down barriers by bringing children with and without disabilities together to make music and to form friendships. The week-to-week summer program is a hybrid format, meaning all weekly meetings can be
attended via Zoom or in-person at ChiME. Please note that the program may be offered completely virtual, dependent upon registered families. The summer camp (July 31-August 1) is all in-person at ChiME. During each session, Buddies work not only on learning parts on their instruments, but on relationship-building skills and social skills. Participants are encouraged to learn about each other and support each other through fun, engaging musical activities and diverse repertoire. Each meeting is led by two professionals, at least one of whom is a board-certified music therapist. This co-leadership, combined with consistently small group time, allows for deeper social- and relationship-building skill work, as well as a true sense of community. Buddy Band members will show off their hard work and relationships through a final performance! No prior experience is needed for participation in this new, exciting ensemble!
