Plugged In is a nonprofit rock band program in the Boston area teaching kids ages 6-19 throughout Massachusetts about using music to create positive change in the world. In addition to weekly ensemble band classes, private lessons, summer day camp, songwriting workshops and community performances, five times a year Plugged In students perform in benefit concerts that raise money for causes and organizations chosen by the students themselves. Plugged In provides a nurturing and supportive community to which young musicians feel a sense of belonging, an opportunity to express and be acknowledged for their musical interests and a chance to use their music to help others around the world.
