To kick things off, our 2024 conference offers virtual programs beginning on Sunday, Sept. 22 (virtual through the 25th), so that no matter where in the world you may be, you can still join us! Then we gather in Chicago on Friday, Sept. 27 in person to learn from one another and celebrate the joy that is children's music.

Our CMN annual conference is now over 30 years old!! Every year it gets bigger and better, creating many opportunities for performers, educators, songwriters, librarians, and families to come together. We connect and reconnect and fill our hearts with laughter and song by sharing songs, ideas, resources and information.

Reconnect with your old friends and meet many new ones as the CMN expanded community gathers to enjoy:

Highlights:

Keynote presentation

18 Workshops & Songswaps

2 Round Robins

Magic Penny and PIO! Scholars' Award ceremonies

Connection, Connection, Connection

And as an exciting extra, this year, we have collaborated with Old Town School of Folk Music to create a special Friday before the Conference officially kicks off. The day will include 2 inspirational workshops, time to explore Old Town, and a Chicago style lunch!

We hope that you will join us for inspiration, learning, connection and MUSIC! Learn more on the conference website.

ALL sessions except the live Round Robin will be recorded and available to attendees through March 31, 2025.
