Key to Change: Meet our Key Changemaker of the Month!
"I
grew up playing the cello, which for me has always felt like my
passport to a wide and endlessly diverse universe. Looking back, I can
see all the ways I was helped along the journey by a community of family
and friends, but also by organizations and sponsors that opened new
opportunities for me.
Key to Change is the organization I needed as a young musician; it's not
just about learning to play music, it's about community and connection.
Key to Change fosters that connection in so many ways, through field
trips to the symphony, group feedback and reflection, mentoring, and
more.
By
supporting Key to Change, you're reaching out with a message of
connection and care, and joining a community of helpers that every
student needs."
- Keith Thomas, Vice President of the Key to Change Board of Directors
Our Key Changemaker of the Month is Keith Thomas! Keith
is our Board Vice President, and has over a decade of experience in
community engagement as a member of the Da Camera Young Artists Program,
principal cellist of the Longmont Symphony in Colorado, and most
recently through the Teaching Artist program at the Seattle Symphony. Click here to learn more.
Keith joined our board because he
believes that excellent music instruction and mentorship are the key to
transforming lives in South King County. If you believe in the
power of music to inspire positive change in our community, join us now
during our Season of Change Campaign as we work to raise $25,000 toward
student scholarships.
