Thank you to our friends at Boston University College of Fine Arts for inviting our fearless leaders, Josué González and Dr. Ian Saunders, to share Project STEP's mission with their students. It was a wonderful afternoon filled with engaging questions and conversations!

Project STEP alumnus Kirk Johnson founded SOUNDS Academy in Phoenix, Arizona ten years ago. We are excited to share that SOUNDS Academy is the recipient of an impactful grant from Virginia G. Piper Charitable Trust. Together, SOUNDS Academy and Virginia G. Piper Charitable Trust believe in the long term value of enhancing arts and culture access across Maricopa County, specifically through music education. #projectstep #projectstepmusic #equityinmusic #celebrating40yearsofequityinmusic #classicalmusic #music #chambermusic #violin #viola #cello #doublebass
