Rosie's House offers a full continuum of programming, including Early Childhood classes for infants and toddlers, a grade 1–12 Afterschool Music Program, and a dynamic Summer Music Program. All programs are 100% free, removing financial barriers and creating access to high-quality music education for families across the Valley.

The Early Childhood Program introduces young learners to music through engaging, developmentally appropriate experiences that support early growth and creativity. Enrollment for Summer 2026 Early Childhood programs opens next week, with Fall 2026 enrollment opening in July.

The Afterschool Program, serving students in grades 1–12, provides free music instruction, instruments, and meals in a supportive environment that fosters confidence, discipline, and academic success. Enrollment for the afterschool program is open now through April 30, 2026.

Rosie's House's Summer Music Program continues to grow, now offering expanded opportunities for students across age groups. Enrollment is open through May 1, 2026, or until classes reach capacity.

In response to growing demand, Rosie's House has expanded enrollment by more than 16% over the past year and recently enhanced its campus to better serve students and families. The expanded facilities for the 15,000 square foot campus include a dedicated Piano Lab, an Early Childhood classroom for the program's youngest learners, additional studio spaces for private lessons, a community center for students and families, a conference room for collaboration and planning, and expanded storage to support the organization's continued growth.

“When we moved into our home on Jefferson Street in 2022, we left 3,000 square feet unfinished, ready for the moment demand would outpace our space,” said CEO Becky Bell Ballard. “Three years later, our waitlist answered. Construction is now complete, and as we celebrate our 30th Anniversary, we're closer than ever to our goal of serving 1,000 students. The space is there. Now we're filling it with kids.”

With a mission to eliminate barriers to high-quality music education, Rosie's House provides a safe, inspiring space where young people can grow, create, and thrive.
