“Poco a Poco strives to cultivate a more vibrant community through musical initiatives designed to educate and entertain.”

The Poco a Poco Summer Music Festival exists to make high-quality arts opportunities, performances, and advanced music education accessible and encourage young talent. This annual, week-long “Summer Music Fest” for young musicians in Central Illinois is inspired by the Italian term, poco a poco, because consistent and steady dedication to a skill can spur tremendous growth. Through instruction and guidance, Poco a Poco hopes to instill a life-long love for music and the arts in young musicians.

Through our free and open-to-the-public outreach concerts, we hope to engage art lovers of all ages in Streator and its surrounding areas.

Founded by Streator native and professional mezzo-soprano Executive Director Kate Tombaugh in 2017.

Poco a Poco’s Team joins together passionate musicians, educators, and fine arts lovers.
