Education Overview
Kids love our Backstage Pipes tours, which we offer for FREE to the whole community. Meet the Kotzschmar Organ and Portland Municipal Organist James Kennerley. Enjoy a lively and fascinating demonstration of the instrument, and learn from knowledgeable docents who lead guests through a guided tour inside the massive wind chest!
Each Spring, music students who play organ, piano, voice, or any orchestral instrument cancompete for thousands of dollars in scholarships through the Kotzschmar Memorial Trust Scholarship Competition.
