To elevate student engagement, and expand the role of music in education by making purposeful, inclusive music a joyful and integral part of literacy, academic, and social-emotional learning throughout the school day, and beyond. We accomplish this by training and equipping inspired educators to integrate hands-on music and songs for learning with classroom instruction, activities, transitions, support services, and building classroom communities. ​Our unique, developmental approach nurtures creative and effective teaching practices through free weekly professional development (PD) courses in ukulele, guitar, and classroom implementation, as well as capacity-building co-teaching artist residencies, intensive workshops, in-service trainings, conference presentations, after school music clubs, and specialized services in adaptive music for inclusion.

Founded in 2016, Sound Aloud exists to equip this generation with the tools to find their voice (identity), release their sound (purpose), and live it ALOUD (unashamed); becoming the sound of freedom to this world. Our heart as a ministry is to use the Creative Arts (fine, performing, visual), holistic health, and mentoring/outreach programs to unleash the treasure that is buried just beneath the surface of our “generationals”. We do this to spark the creative, and vivid imaginations that need motivation and training - the type of training that prepares them to become confident young men and women, and the hope of our future. Our programs and services create positive outlets, give support, nurture dreams, send a message of hope, deal with issues that this generation face, bring cultural awareness, cross religious and cultural boundaries, provide discipleship, help build confidence, build strong self-esteem, character, and create teamwork and connection.

Founded in 2010, the Charleston International Music School (CIMS) provides excellence in performing arts education here in the Low Country, as well as on a national and global level. Students from around the world are coached by CIMS' international faculty in solo and chamber music performance, as well as music theory, choir, and ear training. CIMS' hallmark is the powerful sense of connection and enthusiasm that it fosters in both students and faculty alike. Students work and perform with musicians of different backgrounds and nationalities, learning to communicate through their music-making. This intensive program creates the best conditions for gifted young musicians to flourish. Our programs are tailored to each student’s level and development, including private lessons, music theory, ear training, chamber music, choir, master classes with CIMS faculty and visiting artists, as well as extracurricular seminars. Throughout our two week Summer festival, students perform at various venues including historical sites in downtown Charleston.
