Music Therapy Open House in Ontario Oregon!
(for Anyone with a Barrier to Communication, Learning, or Wellness)

 How Much? 

FREE!!  The idea is to raise awareness about music therapy and how it can help people - so even if you are just a little curious (or maybe just bored on a Friday night), come and check it out! Plus, light refreshments will be provided. Free food and live music, you can’t beat that!

Why?

Because Music Makes Connections. The benefits of music therapy are numerous, but include empowering people with a variety of barriers to engage with others in a fun and nonthreatening way, develop strong relationships, manage emotions, improve memory/cognition, and to learn things about music and about themselves in a unique and powerful way.

When?

Friday, June 1st from 6:30 pm to 8:00 pm
