Big House Youth Jam Education Program
The Big House – The Allman Brothers Band Museum is starting an education program to help steer our kids in a better direction.
We will provide exceptional musicians to teach free music lessons to at-risk children to expand their horizons. . .engage them in worthwhile activities. . .improve academic achievement. . .and develop the self esteem, self discipline, cooperation and self motivation necessary for success.
Our first program – ethnic percussion classes – will start Jan. 14, 2009 in the after-school program at Brookdale Elementary School in Macon where 97 percent of the students are at risk. Students will work toward the goal of performances at the end of each semester for the school and community. Our program is designed to be expanded to other local schools in the future.
