We are Kenai Central Peninsula Music Teachers, our state’s first official music teacher representation in the National Federation of Music Clubs (NFMC). As a member of the NFMC, we celebrate the progress in our students state-wide, by participating in the annual NFMC Gold Cup Festival Adjudication Event.
Our mission is to unite piano, voice, and instrumental teachers across Alaska. Thanks to the internet, we are able to connect our teachers and students from cities like Anchorage to rural areas such as the Kenai Peninsula and the most isolated regions, including the Aleutian Islands.
We support student growth through recitals, workshops, master classes, and other educational opportunities while promoting a well-rounded musical education. We hope you will join us with your membership!
🎼 NFMC Festival Adjudication
AKFMC Festival program invites students to perform and receive constructive written feedback from adjudicators. This annual event fosters accountability and musical excellence. Some areas hold one festival per year, while others offer multiple to keep students motivated and engaged.
🏆 Gold Cups & Awards
Students earn participation ribbons and certificates each year and accumulate points through consistent festival participation. These points go toward earning Gold Cup trophies, a cherished and tangible symbol of long-term achievement and musical growth. It's a rewarding incentive for students and a powerful retention tool for teachers. The more cups you get the larger they get. Which in a way promote longevity because it takes 3 years minimum to earn a cup.
🎹 Workshops & Recitals
We offer workshops for both teachers and students, as well as recitals to showcase student growth. These events help strengthen performance skills, encourage peer learning, and build community across our geographically diverse and challenging state.
🇺🇸 Celebration of American Composers
We actively promote the study and performance of American composers as part of the National Federation’s mission, while also honoring influential foreign composers of every musical era. This balance helps shape a well-rounded and culturally aware musical education.
