Thank you for your interest in the New Orleans Music & Art in Special Education webinars!

We are so thankful to the outstanding panelists and everyone who joined us for the Preservation Hall Lessons webinar series. All five of the panels assembled provided us with actionable tips on things educators can do to empower students with disabilities through music: we have witnessed the joy New Orleans music can bring to people of all ages first-hand, and we're so grateful for the opportunity to share this knowledge with educators around the world.

We encourage you to explore Preservation Hall Lessons, as well as the recap blogs from each webinar (available now on Salon726.com) and share with the teachers, parents and music educators in your life.
