Keep Music Alive is looking for volunteers to help with some of our musical instrument petting zoos in New Jersey. We host events at schools, libraries and community events. These events are extremely fun interacting with kids and letting them try out a few instruments. Musical experience is not required but is definitely a plus. Keep Music Alive representatives will demo a few of the simple instruments for you before event starts. Thanks in advance for considering this opportunity!

Description
Keep Music Alive is the founder of two international music holidays: Teach Music Week (3 rd week in March) and Kids Music Day (1 st Friday in October). Teach Music Week is designed to encourage musicians and music schools everywhere to offer a free lesson to new students (kids or adults). Kids Music Day is designed to encourage music schools and retail locations to hold community events featuring kids and music. In 2017 , there were over 600 music schools and retail locations participating in these two music holidays.
Kids Music Day now appears in the official Chase Calendar of Events and several large chains have participated in Teach Music Week/Kids Music Day including Guitar Center, Music & Arts, School of Rock, Music Together, Kindermusik and Long & McQuade. We are seeking volunteers to help make Kids Music Day and Teach Music Week internationally recognized holidays that serve as annual rallying points for music education.
