The Suzuki Institute of Seattle is proud to host our 2nd Annual Faculty Fundraiser Concert and Silent Auction. The concert will be on Saturday, October 26th at 5pm, with the silent auction opening at 4:30pm. You will hear a mix of your favorite Suzuki tunes and chamber music. As you may or may not be aware, tuition for the school year does not cover the rising expenses of the school. In an attempt to bridge that gap we are asking families who are able to help the school continue its great work of educating and enriching our children's lives through music.
