About Chops, Inc.

Chops is a nonprofit on a mission to improve lives through music education and performing arts. We offer year-round music performance and educational programs, including steel-drum bands, after-school drumlines, summer music camps, and artistic residencies. We also support Minnesota performing arts through fiscal sponsorship, providing technical expertise to help community-based performing groups reach their full potential. We believe every person has a right to a well-rounded education that includes the arts and the benefits they bring. Our values drive our work: integrity, excellence, personal development, community, and entertainment are at the core of our programs, our mission, and our people.
