Harmony at the Heart of Beaver Island

Born out of a deep love for Beaver Islandโ€™s musical heritage and a response to the lack of music education, our 501(c)(3) program opens doors for everyoneโ€”from curious children to the young-at-heartโ€”to explore, create, and connect through music. Here, learning an instrument is more than just lessons; itโ€™s a journey of self-discovery, confidence, and joy shared with neighbors and friends. Tunes Music Makers believes in the power of music to uplift spirits, build bonds across generations, and keep the traditions that make Beaver Island unique alive for future generations.

Our Mission

Our mission is to cultivate a vibrant and inclusive musical community on Beaver Island, providing access to quality music education, fostering creativity and promoting social cohesion. We aim to enrich lives, inspire youth and celebrate the cultural heritage of our community, ensuring that every individual has the opportunity to discover the transformative power of music.

Our current course offerings are:
Acoustic, electric and bass guitar, mandolin, piano, fiddle, ukulele, vocal, cello & banjo.

Tunes Music Makers has made a significant impact on the young people of Beaver Island. Weโ€™ve seen firsthand how music can transform lives, providing an outlet for expression, enhancing cognitive abilities, and building confidence and community. Our home at the Beaver Island Community Center has become a hub of musical activity, with students and tutors demonstrating their commitment to this program daily.

At Tunes Music Makers, we believe in the transformative power of music education. Our goal is to provide every child on Beaver Island with the opportunity to embark on a musical journey that will enrich their lives and their community. With your generous sponsorship, or even a small donation, you can play a pivotal role in making this vision a reality.
