Community connections

                   

Looking for a playgroup?  Wondering if you're the only mom whose child won't sleep at night?  Do you have an older child who's ready for the next musical step?  Or are you thinking about dusting off that trombone and getting back into music yourself?

Welcome!

Welcome to the Community Connections section of this website!  This directory lists a variety of resources available to families in the Louisville metropolitan area.  In putting this directory together, I’ve focused on two main areas: information helpful to families with young children, and information helpful to anyone who wants to add more music to their life or their children’s lives. 

Please note...

 
Please note that there are no legal, financial, or organizational ties between any of these groups listed and either HeartLand Music Together or Music Together^® LLC.  I’ve assembled this Community Connections directory as a personal mission to provide a service to our local community, and any inaccuracies or omissions are my own. 
 
Please note also that this directory is by no means exhaustive – there are all sorts of resources out there that I haven’t yet uncovered!  Please contact me if you know about additional groups or services that might be a good fit for this directory.
 

Thank you!

 
Thank you for your interest!  My intention in offering information about these groups is to help enhance our community, and improve people’s lives.  Please help me keep this directory lively by contacting me with any additions, corrections, or suggestions to improve our Community Connections.
 
Thank you!
