Music For Life
Music For Life is the annual benefit and gala dinner for Dixon Hall Music School. This year, we are proud to celebrate 45 years of providing an accessible, creative home for children and youth. Taking place on November 23, 2023 at the Fairmont Royal York Hotel Toronto, this event attracts upwards of 400 generous corporate and individual guests every year. Those in attendance typically represent a wide range of professions, cultural and community stakeholders, and benefactors of the Arts, including the music industry, accounting, banking and finance, engineering, construction, law, management consulting, communications and technology.
About Dixon Hall Music School
Dixon Hall Music School has provided affordable music lessons to thousands of children in the Regent Park, Moss Park and St. Lawrence neighbourhoods since 1978. Over the years, we’ve built a strong reputation as a music school that provides a cultural lifeline to families from all walks of life.
Joining the Music School means unlocking a world of music in a positive, holistic and welcoming environment. As we move ahead in this decade, we know that it’s not just about the lessons. It’s about an individual and unique approach to our students that stresses mentorship, friendship, nonjudgment and support, an approach that has successfully supported thousands of children and youth through the years
Without the programs that Dixon Hall Music School has to offer, Toronto would lose generations of musicians who, in their own way, will brighten the lives of those around them. Due to the affordability of our program and the all-encompassing opportunities we offer children, our program remains unique and much sought-after.
Our longevity in the Regent Park community has fostered a strong allegiance among those who have grown up at the school and who remain a part of what we do even as they move on to college, university and the job market. These “alumni” students, who give back to us in huge ways, are unique to Dixon Hall Music School.
But what makes Dixon Hall Music School truly unique is our individual approach to the students that stresses mentorship, friendship, non-judgment and support, coupled with constant opportunities for students to increase confidence, good habits and self-awareness, through recitals, competitions, music and arts camps and free concerts, throughout the year. We take an active interest in the progress of each of our students and everybody including the Director, Manager, teachers, parents and students provides thoughts and ideas on how we can lift the lives of our youth even more.
