The mission of the Quartet Residency Project is to teach musical and interpersonal skills through the study of chamber music, and apply these skills through public service. Tetra’s curriculum is based on the core values of Collaboration, Artistry, Perseverance and Service (CAPS). Through practicing these values, young musicians develop life skills that are relevant beyond their high school orchestra experience. Tetra has partnered with the Tempe Union High School District since 2013 and has been annually awarded the City of Tempe Wavemaker Arts Grant.

The Tetra String Quartet residency in Tempe schools is made possible by the Tempe Union High School Education Foundation grant, and Tetra String Quartet’s donors and sponsors
