| The Maestro Initiative @ the Detroit Public Library - Redford Branch
*Free Piano Lessons for Youth at the Redford Branch Library sponsored by the Detroit Metropolitan Youth Ensembles 
The Detroit Public Library - Redford Branch and The Detroit Metropolitan Youth Ensembles proudly present The Maestro Initiative at the Redford Branch Library beginning on June 21, 2011 and will run for consecutive Tuesdays and Thursdays at 1:00 - 3:00 p.m. The classes are limited to Six (6) students per class.
The Maestro Initiative is a piano program designed to foster creative development, cultural growth, and an appreciation of the arts by providing positive musical experiences to Detroit area youths between the ages of 8 and 12 years old.
Our purpose is to provide musical training and performance opportunities to youths who may not otherwise have access or opportunity to such training, while promoting high self- esteem, self-discipline, perseverance, self-motivation, concentration, creativity, higher reasoning skills, high academic achievement, and a positive self-image.
Prospective candidates for the Maestro Initiative are required to submit a brief essay, in the student's words, with their application as to the desire to participate in the Piano program. Applications can be picked up at the Redford Branch Library. Candidates' essays will be evaluated by the Selection Committee, which consists of the school administrator and/or representative and the Maestro Initiative Director, and selected on the strength of their application.
For more information, please contact Dr. Conja Wright at 313-578-8000 or the Detroit Metropolitan Youth Ensembles Director, Kwamise Taylor via email at info@dmye.org.
