Apple Hill Center for Chamber Music

September 21, International Day of Peace, was established in 1981 by the United Nations. The General Assembly declared that this day would be devoted to "commemorating and strengthening the ideals of peace both within and among all nations and peoples." 

We chose to kick off our fall fundraising on this day because we share the values represented by International Day of Peace. Take a stand with us to celebrate diversity, acceptance, and respect by supporting our work in the Monadnock Region and around the world!

Apple Hill exists to create, perform, and teach chamber music at the highest standard, broaden the appreciation of chamber music through the development of educational programs, and cultivate connection and understanding among people of diverse backgrounds and cultures through the Playing for Peace program.
