MENTORSHIP OUTREACH with ZOE WILLINGHAM
Henry For Music is pleased to announce that it has partnered with the Atlanta Youth Symphony Orchestra to present a wonderful treat for the students of Henry For Music's Youth Orchestra United:
Zoe Willingham, Violinist
will join us as our special guest during Rehearsal on November 6th.
Zoe is senior at the Martha Ellen Stilwell School of the Arts in Clayton County, where she is also recognized as the “most outstanding” 9th, 10th and 11th grader in her school orchestra and currently holds the concertmaster position.
She has performed with the Clayton County Honors Orchestra, Franklin Pond Chamber Music, Stilwell School of Arts Chamber Orchestra, Atlanta Youth Symphony Orchestra and the Metropolitan Youth Symphony Orchestra.
Through partnering with local musicians like Zoe and other non-profit organizations, our Mentorship Outreach Program provides students with opportunities focused on both access to instrument instruction and music education.
Look for Zoe to join us at future events as a Featured Artist.
