Music Teachers to be Honored at the Long Island Music & Entertainment Hall of Fame Educator of Note Awards Ceremony
On Sunday, April 14th at 12 noon, the Long Island Music and Entertainment Hall of Fame (LIMEHOF) will host a special ceremony honoring the five most recent winners of the prestigious Educator of Note Award. This is the first ceremony to be held at LIMEHOF’s Stony Brook museum location since it opened.
“I’m thrilled about the upcoming Educator of Note Awards Ceremony, where we’ll shine a spotlight on the outstanding music teachers who are making a difference in our community, said Tom Needham, Tom Needham, Second Vice Chair and Educational Programs Director at LIMEHOF. “It’s a celebration of their dedication and passion for nurturing musical talent on Long Island.”
Supporting and highlighting musical education and upcoming talent through its education programs is a large part of LIMEHOF’s mission. Each year the Long Island Music & Entertainment Hall of Fame presents an Educator of Note Award recognizing outstanding achievement in Long Island music education. LIMEHOF has not held an awards Gala since 2019 in large part due to covid restrictions these award winners were unable to receive their awards in a public ceremony.
This event will feature speeches and musical performances honoring the following educators: Alan Schwartz (2023), Frank Abel (2022), Kim Löwenborg-Coyne (2021), Marc Greene (2020), and Susan Weber (2019).
