Our Mission

Music & Arts Education Project, Inc. (MAEP) is a SOMA-based, 501(c)(3) organization that advocates for the inclusion and broadening of a comprehensive arts and music curriculum in all schools, in all grades, and for all students.  MAEP seeks to demonstrate (i) cognitive development of participatory arts and music programs, (ii) positive social and emotional development of performing arts and music programs, (iii) the inherent diversity, equity, and inclusion that is the cornerstone of the arts, and (iv) the positive community impact of public art displays, music performances, and literary performances.

Every student deserves music and arts education.
