Thanks to the generosity of so many of you, these shelves are pretty well-stocked. But after the school year begins, most instruments are assigned to students for use in weekly classes, and a number are loaned out to students for home use. The shelves begin to look a little bare. Until Christmas :)

When the Quest Center is ringing with the sounds of ‘Ghostbusters’ it can only mean one thing. Earlier this week our Enriching Lives Through Music students treated family and friends to a spooky setlist of Halloween faves, under the leadership of Ms. Heather. This year’s program also included a very special ‘Happy Birthday’ tribute. There is SO MUCH LOVE in this room! Thank you Ms. Heather and everyone who came out to enjoy and support the students! If you or someone you know would like info on our music classes for young people living with disabilities (or any of our other classes; ages 10 & up), please contact Mr. John at [email protected].

A few snaps from our first 2 fall break review classes. More than 35 students registered for sessions over the break. In addition to their continued learning, it’s always exciting to welcome our public school-based students into our beautiful studio where they get to meet so many other kids! Special thanks to Mr. Neil for taking time away from his own school vacation to ensure the kids have a great place to learn and play!

Our stories are best told through pictures, so we hope you’ll take a few minutes to browse, enjoy and gain a deeper understanding of our program – and how your involvement makes it all possible! https://mailchi.mp/qcdickson/the-quest-center-newsletter-winterspring-6429863.

It’s fall break in Dickson County! Two weeks is a very long time for beginner music students to go without structured learning. So we’re conducting 4 review classes over the break to help our beginner guitar students continue learning and playing together. Two sessions have reached capacity, but there are a few seats available for Tuesday, Oct 13 at https://www.qcdickson.org/2026-fall-break-review-class-registration-form. PLEASE NOTE that these are not ‘drop-in’ classes. You must register in advance so we can arrange for staffing and class materials. Students may attend multiple sessions.
