Youth Music Education Program

Music changes lives. We are launching a free after-school music program for underserved youth ages 8-18 in South Side Chicago, where arts funding has been cut by 60% in the last decade. The Harmony Project will provide: - 50 quality instruments (guitars, keyboards, violins, drums) - Weekly lessons from professional musicians and music educators - Monthly performance opportunities at community events - A recording studio for students to produce original music - Summer music camp (2 weeks, fully funded) Research shows that students in music programs have 20% higher graduation rates and improved social-emotional skills. Every child deserves access to the arts, regardless of their zip code.
