About Roots of American Music (ROAM)
ROAM was created in 1999 to provide arts programming to the community using traditional American music to connect students to our past. Today, ROAM educates students, adults with disabilities, and seniors about the roots of American music: gospel, blues, jazz, early rock, and gives them an outlet to experience and perform that music together. ROAM’s programs use traditional American music to help individuals of all ages and backgrounds meet wider goals in education or personal development. Literacy, math, science, self-determination, tolerance, and music enrichment are some of the themes ROAM teaching artists incorporate into music workshops and residencies.
