Attend a Performance
 Project STEP's calendar is filled with performances
held in a variety of venues in and
around Boston. A great way to get to know the program is to attend one of them - at
Boston's
Museum of Fine Arts, Symphony Hall's Cabot-Cahners Room or Higginson Hall, or the Hall of Ideas in the Christian Science Church.
 Master classes
provide unique opportunities
to see and hear well known performers off the concert stage,
where they meet
with our students as they guide and teach them on techniques and strategies to enhance the students' performances. Held twice a year,
master classes
offer a close-up look at the delicate
and demanding
work that goes into mastering a musical instrument, and performing a piece of music.
Renowned
artists such as Mstislav Rostropovich, Yo-Yo Ma, Jaime Laredo, Lucia Lin, and Marcus Thompson have lead
these extraordinary
classes.
Volunteer at a Performance
Project STEP has a substantial performance calendar and welcomes volunteers to assist with
these events.
Volunteers help arrange refreshments, welcome guests at the door, and
hand
out programs and other materials.
There are also volunteer opportunities behind the scenes, helping with activities such as getting
out
large mailings out and readying files to be moved to deep storage.
For volunteer opportunities, contact Jennifer Lee, Program and Development Coordinator, by phone at 617-267-5777, or click here.
Underwrite a Performance
Project STEP
students
perform in rooms at Symphony Hall and other
Boston
locations throughout the year. Each
performance
requires rehearsal space, music, transportation of students and music stands, and coaching sessions. Costs vary, beginning at $300.

On Sunday, June 10, 2007, at 3 p.m . , Project STEP celebrated its 25th Anniversary on stage at historic Symphony Hall. It was a gala event featuring Project STEP alumni and the Eroica Trio, along with other outstanding performances.
