The Harmony Project is an award-winning research-based music program targeting underserved Los Angeles youth who live in at-risk areas.
Starting with only 36 kids, in 2001, the Harmony Project now has over 800 students. By reaching out to underserved youth in at risk areas of Los Angeles, the Harmony Project promotes positive youth development through on-going year-round music lessons and performance opportunities.
For the last 2 years the Harmony Project has been the multi-year recipient of the nation's highest honor for humanities programs from the President's Committee on the Arts and the Humanities. Fifteen students were recently awarded 2010 Banchik Scholarships. Each student will be the first in his/her family to attend college.
