Program Development: “Grow Out Loud”
In late 2019, I began to develop an outreach program, Grow Out Loud, in the hopes of creating a 10 week music class series for children between the ages of 3rd-5th grade. The idea was to incite curiosity and create a safe, silly space to explore music and voice. I prototyped the course at Charlottesville Boys and Girls Club, and I am thrilled to say it was a success.
Though the Pandemic meant I couldn’t re-do the program for the next year, I very much look forward to implementing it again, and improving it as I do. I feel very passionately about creating ‘music enthusiasts’ who will go on to enjoy, participate in, and support the arts throughout their lives.
If you are with an organization that would be interested in implementing this series, or something like it, in your own programs, please contact me for more information.

During the Pandemic I shifted my GOL class series to Youtube! Click below to see the 10 week song series—enjoy.
