Midwest Young Artist Conservatory (MYAC), a youth music program located in Highwood, IL. As the region’s largest youth music ensemble program, we offer unparalleled orchestral, chamber, jazz, and choral music education of the highest quality. We empower nearly 1000 students annually of all ages and abilities, from 84 communities in Illinois, Wisconsin, and Indiana. At our annual Gala, we host a Silent Auction for gift baskets compiled of items donated by various businesses and individuals.

Our Gala helps provide scholarships and financial aid for students in need as well as attract world-class teaching faculty and visiting master artists. Last year proceeds from the Gala helped provide over $100,000 in financial aid and scholarships to over 150 students.
