Our young artists thrive on performance opportunities, and we love connecting them with our passionate supporters, many of whom are professionals from diverse fields. Each month, the Atlanta Music Project hosts Practice Makes Professional events, where groups of professionals either visit the AMP Center for Performance and Education or where our students travel to meet the professionals for an afternoon of music, professional exchange, and mentorship.

The goal is for these accomplished professionals to inspire our young artists, motivating them to work diligently and aim high. As we know, practice makes professional—in music and in life!

Each Practice Makes Professional event lasts approximately 1.5 hours and is held after school, typically from 4:30 to 6:00 p.m. on Mondays or Fridays. This event includes:

• Performance: AMP Young Artists present a brief, private concert for professionals and guests
• Discussion: Professional guests share insights about their education and careers with the young artists.
• Q&A Session
• Networking: An opportunity to connect students with professionals
