GRP on the Road! provides music/instrument instruction, voice training, songwriting, band formation, and showcase/performance experience. We piloted this program with both Belmont and KIPP North Charter schools last fall.

GRP on the Road! Will offer a curriculum that focuses on Girls* empowerment including holistic workshops on identity as well as music instruction based upon the youth’s interests. This could look like creating a band, choir, or the like. 

Goals

• Build confidence in self and in music knowledge (self, mind)

• Inform girls through thoughtful analysis about change, patriarchal systems, and liberation (justice)

• Exit the program knowing a new skill or improving upon an old one (music)

• Foster a community of empowered girls* (community)

• Perform at school talent shows and collaborate to put together a showcase/recital to show progress at the end of each quarter (opportunities, practicality)

• Show significant emotional (intrapersonal/interpersonal) growth among peers 

• Encourage freedom of expression & artistic experimentation
