On December 20, 2022, six students at Casey Elementary School were surprised with a special gift from 601 Studios, Music & Arts Academy. As part of the "Give a Guitar for Christmas" project, each student received their very own guitar.
For the privacy of the students, their faces are not shown in this article.
The excitement in the air was palpable as the students eagerly opened the cases to reveal their new instruments. Many of them had never played a guitar before and were eager to get started.
To help the students get started on their musical journey, 601 Studios is working with the school administration to provide lessons for the students after the new year. These lessons will be taught by experienced guitar instructors and are designed to get the students comfortable with their new instruments.
By providing these students with the opportunity to learn and grow through music, 601 Studios hopes to foster a love of the arts and a sense of accomplishment in these young learners.
Overall, the "Give a Guitar for Christmas" project was a huge success thanks to the many families, students, and businesses that gave to this endeavor.
