Consider making a gift to ICI, through our GiveMN Campaign!

We are so grateful to all our donors and friends for their continued support. We have launched a Matching Grant Campaign with a goal of $5,000, which will be matched 100% by the ICI Board.

The goal of our 2024 GiveMN fundraising efforts is geared towards bringing high-quality educators, as well as funding our general programming and operations. Make sure to donate by clicking on the square button that says "Match LIVE" to have your donation count towards our matching grant campaign.

Hear from our students!

As “Give To The Max” day approaches (November 21, 2024), we are happy to share a video testimonial from Jayna Powell, one of our ICI students (from 2023 and 2024). It is important for us to share the passion of our students with potential donors so that they can hear firsthand about what ICI provide to cellists around the world!
