The highest profile event that fulfills this mission is the presentation of the biennial North American Piano Competition and Music Festival. A challenging piano competition for pianists of any nationality, ages 16 through 21, it has an equal emphasis on offering support to young musicians as they continue their education, give performances, develop programs, and build careers. Striving to bring classical music to the widest possible audience, PianoArts education programs are tailored to individual schools and communities. Through a PianoArts fellowship program, selected winners in the North American competition return to Milwaukee to partner with local educators and share their artistry in Wisconsin schools. In years opposite the North American competition, PianoArts partners with the Milwaukee Symphony Orchestra to present the Wisconsin Youth Piano Competition, for pianists ages 10-16.
