1. Community Music Project / Haven Free Music School - Haven UMC believes that music has the power to bring people together, and our goal is to create an inclusive and supportive community. If you are interested in taking FREE music lessons (violin, viola, cello, piano) OR if you play an orchestral instrument and would like to be part of our Chamber Ensemble, please contact us. Our Spring Semester has begun and free music lessons for violin, viola, cello, and piano are every Saturday morning, and rehearsals for the Chamber Ensemble are on Saturdays from 12:30-2:30pm. There will be a Spring Concert in May with additional performances in the community. If you want to use your musical gifts for the community, please join us! To register or for information call 401-438-4911 or email havenumchurch@yahoo.com.
