We grew!
There are now TWO Youth Volume studios:
- The original, Detroit Youth Volume, was founded in 2010. DYV students take lessons virtually with Director Clara Hardie on Zoom. They join a hybrid group class monthly with Marquette students. DYV also works with local musicians in person annually on an album project to celebrate place-based music genres.
- Marquette Youth Volume was founded in 2022. MYV private lessons and group classes take place within the community dance/yoga studio called Still Point North. Yooper youth collaborate with their DYV classmates during hybrid group classes, and with local musicians during Spring-time place-based music projects.
Let’s make quality music education accessible to low-income families in Detroit & Marquette! YV’s Equitable Tuition Fund is supported by individual donors and small grants. Together, we are nurturing beautiful humanity & beautiful talent in Michigan string-players ages 4-18!
