The Urban Youth Harp Ensemble is an incredible Atlanta-based nonprofit providing free harp instruction to students of color and at-risk youth.
Kelly meets executive director Ms. Roselyn Lewis and teaching artist Dr. Jennifer Betzer who explain how the nonprofit came to be, and why the harp has such a large barrier of entry. Kelly also meets current student Myron, who shares how he fell in love with the harp, and gives Kelly and the audience a special performance!
