Today our students are heading back home!
We are so proud of them and for all the hard work they have put in for the last three weeks.
Thank you to everyone who has come to our fundraisers, concerts, and supported MBB in some way. We are so grateful to our community!

Thank you Eichardt's Pub Grill & Coffee House (Jeff and Sandi Nizzoli) for having us last night!
And thank you for being our sponsor again ❤️

Lots of trail walking, bike riding and sipping coffee/tea from the best place in town!

Mark Weber- violin and cello luthier workshop tour

Bravo to all our students for their wonderful finale concert at the Jacklin Arts and Cultural Center! Each of one of them played spectacularly. This is the last concert of the 2026 program and the students will be heading home to Mexico very soon.

We want to thank all the people who made this concert possible. Thank you to all of the following:
- Darla Dreyer, Cheryl McHale and JACC staff for opening up the JACC to us once again and for providing food and beverages
- To our pianist accompanist, Debbie Willford, for accompanying all our students on their solos and being a part of our ensemble
- To all our guest musicians: Christopher Anderson, Jessie Morozov, Carys Perillioux, Max Reed and Larry Hana, Jeff McLagan, and A***n Reiner from the Pend Oreille Orchestra for participating with us
- To all our 2026 sponsors: Bonner County Human Rights Task Force, Ziply Fiber, Community Assistance League, Eichardt’s Pub and Grill, Blue Heron Café, Aspire Institute, Angels over Sandpoint, and Evans Brothers.

And of course, thank you to our beautiful Sandpoint community for supporting our program year after year!

If you are hoping to catch our students one last time, we will be at Eichardts in Sandpoint tonight around 7:45pm. We will also be drawing the winner raffle ticket for our quilt donated by Northwest Quilts!
