Our Song: Workshop World Tour
Promoting, documenting, and sharing student songs from around the globe.
Promoting, documenting, and sharing student songs from around the globe.
-The Vision-
Arts education has a truly transformational power on the lives of young people. Music, and songwriting in particular, allows voices to be heard, breaks down barriers, and helps make connections between people, places, and ideas. Everyone deserves the opportunity to feel empowered by self expression, and music is one of the best ways to provide that sense of empowerment.
-The Goals-
This project aims to promote, document, and share student songs across the globe. In order to accomplish this, I will:
1. Travel to 9 countries throughout Asia, the Middle East, Africa, and Latin America.
2. Partner with a different school in each country and spend four weeks teaching, discussing, and learning about music making and lyric writing.
3. Leave each location with audio recordings, photos, and video clips of the students, which will be shared via social media, and will culminate in a short documentary film and a recording collection to be released during the end of 2014.
