Guitar Horizons programming presents high-quality, classical guitar education in St. Louis schools that need it most. This past April, over 65 guitar students from across the region performed on stage together at All-Metro Guitar Day at the Touhill, a wondrous sight to see! 🙌

Summer is off to a splendid start! Students at Larimore Elementary School, with help from their teachers Ms Larissa Young and Shuqing Ma, built an electric guitar and presented it to Brian! An awesome STEAM project that also is a playable piece of art. Thank you, Larimore Lions! 🎸
Last Saturday, we hosted a donor appreciation event, with performances by local classical guitarist Kirk Hanser and Will Carson, a former student of both Kirk and Brian and current student at Berklee School of Music. Thank you to all of our loyal supporters for attending and for all that you do!
