EngAGE is celebrating Thanksgiving all month!
EngAGE is thankful to be able to provide intergenerational programming to keep our older residents connected with the younger generation.
We are thankful for EngAGE teaching artist Lauren Wright, who teaches voice and piano lessons at Magnolia@Highland Senior Apartments in San Bernardino, CA, and Long Beach Senior Arts Colony in Long Beach, CA. Lauren is majoring in Music Performance at California State University, Long Beach, Bob Cole Conservatory of Music.
Lauren teaches private 30-minute lessons for beginners with emphasis on reading music and playing simple pieces on the piano. Residents are not only learning how to play piano, but also some basic music theory and understanding of how the piano works.
Now, as is the case with all of our EngAGE programming, Lauren offers her classes online.
Click here to see the YouTube video of the culminating event of Long Beach Senior Arts Colony’s vocal music program, made possible with support of The Rock Club – Music Is the Remedy and the NAMM Foundation. Lauren played a vital role in making this special, uplifting music program successful.
Thank you, Lauren Wright!
