Join Our Performing Artist Roster

We are seeking artists on an ongoing basis to join our performing artist roster. If you are currently working in your discipline, have an interest in sharing your talents with students, and have the flexibility to perform during regular school hours, we encourage you to apply.

Before applying, please review our current artist directory to consider how your proposed program differs from programs already available through The Music Center. It is important to read the descriptions of artists currently on the roster as we do not duplicate programs. In accordance with the Music Center’s standard of excellence, artists should display merit expressed in their art and an effective communication style.

Please note we are not adding theme based (bullying, environment, etc.) or nonperforming arts based (science, drawing, etc.) performances to our roster.
