Mission and programs · 2023

Mission

317 Main creates an environment for musical enrichment centered on respect, encouragement, and support for musicians of all ages and abilities. 317 Main contributes to the vibrancy of our communities by offering extraordinary music education at our Yarmouth studios, engaging diverse populations through partnership programs, and supporting the creative economy through collaborative partnerships and hiring local artists.

Activities or mission (Part I)

317 Main is a cultural arts organization dedicated to building community through music education, events, and performance.

  • 317 Main's largest program service is providing music education opportunities for students of all ages and abilities at our Yarmouth studios. In 2024, 317 Main provided private and group lessons, as well as ensembles, classes, workshops, and performance opportunities to more than 1,800 students and music lovers throughout the year. Music students range in age from infant to 90 years old and come to 317 Main from 40+ different towns in southern and central Maine. Focus areas for FY24 included continued growth of our programs, expanding our performance options, and utilizing our Founders Hall more efficiently. We continue to build "Little Roots" early childhood music education program for children ages of birth to 8 years old and our "Deep Roots" program for people aged 55 and older which includes group singing, ensembles, and dance programs. 317 Main also focused on creating more intimate learning opportunities in our free partnership program designed to bring music education and music enrichment opportunities to disadvantaged populations, as well as other individuals of all ages who otherwise would not have access to music. We do this by forging meaningful collaborations and partnerships with public and private schools, social service organizations that support underserved populations and senior citizen organizations. Our partnership program in FY24 grew its schedule that was maintained in FY23.
