What is Project 440?
Project 440 engages, educates and inspires young musicians, providing them with the career and life skills they need to develop into tomorrow's civic- minded, entrepreneurial leaders.
Through music, every young person is provided with the opportunity and tools for individual growth and community impact.
Project 440 is unique - this video will tell you why.
How we help
College and Career Preparedness
Which is a better fit: liberal arts college, university, or conservatory? How can students successfully navigate the often-confusing maze of financial aid, grants and scholarships? What are good strategies to wow college reps with auditions, essays and interviews?
We have answers to all of these questions!
Leadership & Entrepreneurship
What does it mean to be a leader and an entrepreneurial musician in the 21st Century? We guide our students through a deeper exploration of career paths, and a social entrepreneurship exercise culminating in presentations to a “Shark Tank” panel of experts, complete with cool prizes!
Community Engagement & Interactive Performance
How can musicians make musical performance more engaging and interactive for non-traditional audiences? How can they inspire younger children to follow in their musical footsteps? Our seminars address those questions and prepare students to create unique interactive performances they can present in unusual locations throughout their communities.
