Kids Music Day is an initiative of Keep Music Alive. The nonprofit is also celebrating its 10th anniversary this fall with a “Drum on Anything” Challenge. The challenge encourages musicians and music fans age 1 and older to share a short video clip of themselves drumming on anything, with anything. Keep Music Alive also encourages other music education nonprofits to use the challenge to raise funds for their programs. Keep Music Alive’s “Drum on Anything” campaign page is available online.
