“My mom signed me up for it
because she read about it in the newspaper,” said Jessica Lin, a student in the
fall 2013 Beginner Guitar program. “I decided to try it and I really like it.
It’s fun and our teacher is really nice and explains things very well.”



“It’s awesome to watch
these kids become excited about playing music,” said Jeff Moore. “Several students
who started out in this beginner class are now further advancing their guitar
skills through private instruction; and it’s clear that they are growing and
gaining confidence through music education.”
