Hopewell Music Cooperative North

Hopewell Music Cooperative North is a nonprofit music school whose mission is to improve music education in North Minneapolis through affordable, inclusive, and engaging music programs. We offer private instrument lessons on a wide variety of instruments as well as four ensembles that are free and open to anyone in the Northside community. ​

What Hopewell does is about more than just music, it is about equal opportunities and access to music education. Music education is scientifically  proven to increase academic performance in children and enhance productivity and mental acuity in adults. Music has the added benefits of instilling values such as discipline, resilience, cooperation, and good communication while providing both youth and adult students with a creative outlet.  Playing in a group provides further benefits of helping students find camaraderie among like-minded peers.
