Music Program
School Year classes run from early September through mid-June. We accept students throughout the year on a space available basis. Students may add classes at any time, with instructor consent. They may also drop classes with 30 days prior notice. Tuition can be paid in two payments by 9/1/2022 and 1/3/2023. Most School Year families choose equal payments, made monthly, from September through May, along with a partial payment in June. The monthly equal payment amounts are shown on the yellow registration bars below.
For Season 2022/2023, PMA will offer private music lessons both onsite and virtually. Upon registration you will receive specific details about scheduling and logon.

Private Lessons
The Portland Metro Arts Music Program offers group classes and private lessons in Bass Guitar, Cello, Flute, French Horn, Guitar, Piano, Trumpet, Ukulele, Violin, Viola, and Voice. Our teachers offer lessons to beginners as well as advanced students, and go at a pace that responds to each student's individual needs. Learning proper technique for voice or an instrument gives a student a lifelong skill in an artform that enriches their life and builds confidence in their own abilities.
Music is one of the fundamental performing arts. Here at PMA students have several opportunities to share throughout the year and showcase their talent and accomplishments in class.
All group music classes and lessons run from Sept. 6, 2022 - June 15, 2023. Private lesson students may also continue through our summer session. Please click on the above links or scroll down for registration information. Private lessons are subject to instructor availability, and it is often a good idea to call or email us to inquire about lesson times.
Contact us if you have a suggestion for a specific class. We frequently add new classes to our schedule. If you register for a WAITLIST ONLY class, you will be contacted when a space becomes available. If the blue Register button is not available next to a class, that class is full.
All beginning group classes are open to age appropriate students with little or no previous music training.
Group Music Classes
Learning in a group setting is a fun way to introduce playing an instrument, while getting “hands on” experience, making new friends & gaining musical skills! See your child's face beam in self-confidence with the success of making music from the very first lesson. Students will learn the basics of playing an instrument, while developing note-reading and overall musicianship. Violin, Viola, and Cello students will need to provide their own appropriately-sized instrument. Music is provided. Parent participation is strongly encouraged.
