2026 PMEA Annual In-Service Conference

SmartMusic by MakeMusic brings its industry-leading music education technology platform to the 2026 PMEA Annual In-Service Conference, held at Kalahari Resort in Pocono Manor, Pennsylvania from April 23, 2026. The Pennsylvania Music Educators Association’s annual conference is one of the most significant professional development gatherings for music educators in the state, featuring workshops, performances, exhibits, and networking opportunities across all areas of music education. MakeMusic’s presence at the conference gives music educators hands-on access to SmartMusic (now MakeMusic Cloud), the leading browser-based music education platform that connects teachers and students for focused practice, assessment, and immediate feedback. The platform allows teachers to build custom method books, create personalised playlists and practice units, use the Sight Reading Builder for unlimited customisable exercises, and track student progress through a variety of in-class and at-home activities. For music educators looking to enhance their instrumental and vocal programmes with technology that genuinely supports musical development, MakeMusic’s exhibit at PMEA offers an opportunity to see the platform in action, ask questions, and explore how it can be integrated into their teaching. Whether you’re already using SmartMusic or considering it for the first time, the conference setting provides the ideal environment to learn from both the MakeMusic team and fellow music educators.
