Artz for the Harp's mission is to provide musical instruments for lessons, as well as arts enrichment and arts therapy programming, to students of all ages in underserved communities throughout Georgia and the Southeast.
At Artz for the Harp, we firmly believe that music education is essential to the development of the whole child. Every child should have access to the emotional, social, physical, and intellectual benefits of music. We also believe that music has the power to heal and provides a positive outlet for self-expression through the arts, fostering growth in self-esteem, responsibility, and discipline.
Inclusive Music Foundation: We provide a music foundation for students of all ages, regardless of prior music training. Comprehensive Instruction: We offer individual and group harp and music instruction that is developmentally appropriate for each student's current level. Creativity and Expression: We nurture and foster creativity, offering outlets for artistic self-expression. Safe Learning Environment: We ensure a safe and positive learning environment for all students at Artz for the Harp.
Artz for the Harp began in 2003 with a single instrument and a bold vision: to bring the beauty and accessibility of harp music into public school classrooms. That vision came to life when we launched the first-ever public school harp program in the state of Tennessee through Memphis City Schools.
