Welcome to the official website for Children's Concert Society!


Celebrating 60 years of making music magic for Akron area children!

OUR MISSION

The Children's Concert Society is a non-profit educational, volunteer organization founded in 1947. Our purpose is to foster music appreciation in the youth of the community by providing opportunities to experience the beauty of fine, live musical performances.  

We offer all public, private, parochial schools and home school groups in Summit County and surrounding areas the opportunity to participate in three major program areas:
CONCERT HALL SERIES
For a nominal fee, students attend a very special performance (ballet, symphony orchestra, opera) in a concert hall.  Because the Series is funded through scholarships, no student is excluded from this event
IN-SCHOOL CONCERT SERIES
A diverse selection of small instrumental, vocal and dance ensemble programs are made available to all public, private, parochial schools and home school groups in Summit County and surrounding areas at NO CHARGE to the schools.
