M-STARS @ Our Own Thing
Youth Piano Program
About
In partnership with Willis Patterson’s Our Own Thing Youth Instructional Program, the Our Own Thing Piano Program provides piano instruction on Saturday afternoons from January – April. Students kindergarten through high school residing in the Ann Arbor / Ypsilanti area receive free, private and semi-private piano lessons along with studio class each week. This program is instrumental in breaking down the barriers to make music education more inclusive and accessible. Lessons are student-centered and focus on the participants’ individual goals while providing lessons in piano technique and music theory. By nurturing creativity, discipline, and self-expression, M-STARS @ Our Own Thing empowers young pianists to discover their voices through music.
