Spreading Holiday Cheer Through Community, Celebration & Giving
Every December, the Marion County Elementary Music Association brings our community together to celebrate the joy of the season through music, friendship, and giving. Our signature event, the Marion Holiday Music Festival & Toy Drive, invites families, students, and neighbors to share their holiday spirit—enjoy performances by young musicians, sing along, and donate toys for children in need. Together, we transform joyful melodies into meaningful moments of kindness and connection.
👉 Next Event: December 12–13, 2025
🎁 Goal: Collect 750+ toys for families in need while spreading the gift of music throughout Marion County.
Our Mission
The Marion County Elementary Music Association is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to inspiring young minds, strengthening community spirit, and giving back through the power of music and education. What began as a small collaboration among local schools has grown into a cherished tradition that brings students, families, and educators together every holiday season to share joy, learning, and generosity.
Why We Do It
We believe that music, community, and compassion go hand in hand. By blending performance with purpose, we help children discover their voices—both on stage and in the community. Through our annual Holiday Music Festival & Toy Drive, the Marion County Elementary Music Association fosters harmony, creativity, and kindness across Marion County.
