This concert will be the culminating concert for our free weeklong music camp for immigrant youth. In this camp, the youth will form bands and learn how to play instruments (guitar, bass, drums, keyboards, etc.), how to write original songs, and how to collaborate creatively. We make this camp as accessible as possible, supplying instruments, cultural supports, food and bus tickets to the youth. The camp is designed to help them use music to express what's in their hearts and on their minds, and this concert will be their opportunity to share their creative expressions with the community.
