These concerts are presented at the Artemus W. Ham Concert Hall for Clark County 4th and 5th graders in collaboration with the Clark County School District Partnership Program. For many of the students attending these concerts, this is their first encounter with the concert experience and the responses from parents, teachers and students have been overwhelmingly positive. Currently, the LV Phil performs 10 Youth concerts in early January before over 18,000 eager students.

The LV Phil Masterclass programs are designed to allow advanced students the opportunity to perform and to be critiqued by eminent artists that the Philharmonic has engaged as guests for its subscription and soirée concerts. For aspiring young artists, these classes have been invaluable in providing a deep insight into the challenges they will encounter as they pursue their careers in a very competitive industry. The LV Phil Masterclasses are archived and available for your viewing on this website as an extended courtesy of the Philharmonic’s educational services.

All of these activities are cost free for the students participating in them. Thus it is to individuals and businesses that we look to for ongoing support to sustain these opportunities. Please consider joining our “Kids to Concerts” patrons at the minimum donation of $50 to help us defray the expenses associated with providing these programs.

Your gift will be acknowledged in our concert program in a separate listing and you will have the assurance that we will continue to refine and broaden our programs to serve all interested students throughout the Las Vegas valley.
