How can your homeschool family join the national celebration of America’s 250th birthday in a way that’s meaningful, creative, and easy to do? In this inspiring episode of the Music in Our Homeschool podcast, Gena Mayo shares how to celebrate America 250 through her brand-new course, Music and Art of America: 250 Years of Freedom.

Gena takes you behind the scenes of this patriotic journey—18 short, 15-minute weekly lessons that guide your family through 250 years of American music and art. You’ll explore everything from Colonial fiddle tunes and Revolutionary songs to jazz, Broadway, country, and film scores—each paired with fine art from iconic American artists like Winslow Homer, Grant Wood, and Mary Cassatt.

In this heartfelt episode, Gena also reflects on her own family’s summer trip to Philadelphia, Boston, and Gettysburg, sharing how standing in the places where history happened reignited her gratitude for the courage and creativity that built our nation.
