SCHOOL VIDEO CONTESTS
Winter 2025 In-Home Concert Contest
We love when our students plan in-home holiday concerts! They can happen when friends and family are gathered for the holidays, or even as part of your normal lesson where family, pets and whoever is around gathers at the end to hear a holiday performance of a few faves. You can make invites, programs, art and even dress up. Meridee Winters teachers are ready to help you put together a fun and easy way to celebrate the season, and even have access to program templates, invitations and more.
This year, if you snap a photo and video or your performance, upload them here by January 2nd, 2026 for a chance to WIN a prize pack! Your teacher could even win a prize too! Happy holidays!
Summer 2025 Video Contest Winners!
We had so many creative and compelling entries to our Summer Video Contest. It was hard to pick a winner, but Noah took the overall prize with his great instrumental version of “Chameleon.” We also want to recognize Aldon and his original piece, “Aldon’s Song” as an outstanding piano performance, and Adesuwa as an Honorable Mention for “Songwriter on the Rise.” In addition to these, there were so many great submissions - check out a peek below! Keep an eye out for our Spring Video Contest, too. Info to come!
