Student Testimony

“Playing in the band is another way for people to get connected and make new friends. Also its…letting YOU out! Some people hold so many things inside of them and here in rock band you can just express it all through music”. -Nandi, Age 8, IMW Student at NKO Charter School

“I moved here to Chicago after my mother passed away and I would not be here today if it wasn’t for IMW and all the instructors who’ve worked with me at Fuller Park. They helped me to understand that that life isn’t just the negative things, but the positive things too. Playing in the band taught me to express my anger through music and helped turn things around.”
-Michaela, Age 16, lead singer for IMW Fuller Park band Neon Park
