Do you love guitar and want to bring that love and knowledge to underserved and underprivileged schools in the community?
Artportunity Knocks empowers youth through positive self-expression, education, community service, and bridging cultures through the Arts.
We are looking for a volunteer guitar instructor for a beginner-level course in Marietta. The course will run once a week for six weeks between January and March 2018. Classes will take place some time between 10am and 2pm for anywhere between three and ten students. Acoustic guitars will be provided for each child.
If this sounds like something you'd be interested in, we'd love you to make music with us.
