Description
Henry For Music, Inc. brings Youth and Instruments Together, transforming lives through the Gift of Music.
Henry For Music, Inc. believes that no student should be denied the joy of music and learning to play an instrument, if they so desire, no matter their station in life or their inability to purchase an instrument and acquire instruction.
Henry For Music, Inc. enables Students to participate in music programs by easing financial barriers preventing instrument rental or purchase through accepting donations of new and used musical instruments, regardless of condition, working with local instrument repair professionals to repair and refurbish them as necessary, and then coordinating with County Middle Schools, High Schools, and Community Centers to place the newly-restored instruments into the hands of Student Musicians.
The Henry County Fine Arts Education Department is partnering with Henry For Music to bring music to every Henry County school through E-SPLOST. Henry For Music also develops advocacy efforts to bring Orchestras and Bands with Teachers into all school environments - public, private, homeschool, kids in transition (homeless), foster/guardian care, and the SWAG Program.
