The Sound Wall Music Initiative is dedicated to fostering music education and supporting the development of young musicians and songwriters in our community.
Through a variety of enriching programs, we offer students the chance to learn directly from experienced artists and industry professionals. Our master classes provide in-depth, one-on-one mentorship, while our songwriters’ workshops offer hands-on opportunities to hone their craft in a collaborative setting.
In addition to these immersive learning experiences, we bring music directly into schools, offering students a unique chance to engage with working musicians through interactive visits. Each year, we also host a Student Showcase at the Opelika Songwriters Festival (OSF), giving young artists a platform to perform and share their talents with a larger audience.
By connecting students with real-world musical experiences, SWMI is helping to cultivate the next generation of creative voices and providing them with the tools they need to succeed.
