Come join us for our annual End of the Year Concert, featuring solo and ensemble performances from student performers of the Noel Pointer Foundation.

Founded in 1995, the Noel Pointer Foundation is a not-for-profit that dramatically enriches the lives of children by developing string music education programs for under-served communities in New York City. Through professional training, performance opportunities and college placement assistance, the Noel Pointer Foundation enhances a student’s cultural and academic experience, infusing them with a positive sense of who they are and a boundless sense of what they can become. The program currently exists in over 30 different New York City Schools. Due to the successes of this program, the foundation began offering music enrichment programs at their headquarters in Bedford Stuyvesant, Brooklyn. In 1999, the foundation instituted the Summer String Program, serving an average of 200 pupils per summer.
