El Sistema USA® is proud to announce that we will host the 2024 National Symposium in partnership with Butler University from June 13-15, 2024. Save the date, more information to come.

El Sistema USA’s 2024 National Symposium is a multi-day conference which will provide professional development, resource sharing, networking, and youth leadership opportunities for ESUSA members as well as individuals and partner organizations working in the field of music for social impact and creative youth development. The symposium is scheduled for Summer 2024, at Butler University. The conference will be hosted in partnership with local arts organizations to highlight community partnerships, collective impact, and youth voice. ESUSA will continue to prioritize youth leadership through the Youth Ambassador Program, where students and alumni will be paid to plan and execute content for both adults and students at the symposium. The event will be made possible in part by a $20,000 grant from the National Endowment for the Arts. For more information, click here.
