Description	SOL-LA provides instrumental music instruction at no cost to students at Saint Anne School, a Title 1 school, in Santa Monica where 50 to 70% of families meet the Federal Food Programs poverty criteria. In 2010 the program began with volunteer teachers and 15 beginning fourth grade violin and cello students. Each year the program has expanded to include the next grade level and today SOL-LA faculty teach students from 3rd to 7th grade reaching over 150 students. The essential aspects of the instrumental program are weekly lessons with a SOL-LA master teacher in violin, cello, guitar or chorus and daily peer-to-peer mentor ship/practice buddies for string students from the Elizabeth Mandell Music Institute (EMMI) at Crossroads School for Arts and Sciences with the support of Crossroads Community Outreach Foundation (CCOF). In addition college students from UCLA Herb Alpert School of Music (HASOM) act as senior mentors. Instruments are provided to each student, the majority on loan from our community partner, American Youth Symphony, and many provided through donors. For this project, Saint Anne School was honored as one of the three finalists for last year's Bravo Awards. Next year, SOL-LA's Instrumental Music Program at Saint Anne School will include an assessment of the program's influence on behavioral, social and academic indicators through a study conducted by UCLA, HASOM, Saint Anne School and SOL-LA Music Academy. All Saint Anne instrumental music students receive full scholarships to attend ensemble, theory and chorus classes on the SOL-LA campus throughout the academic year.	Description

Description	Other outreach programs include:SOL-LA Student and Adult Education. Throughout the school year, SOL-LA conducts master classes, workshops, coaching and group classes for public and private elementary, middle and high school students by highly accomplished teachers and performers. A unique aspect of the SOL-LA program is its Parent and Faculty Education program, a series of informal lectures within the community that inform the public about the benefits of music education as a critical component of general education.College and High School Mentor Program.SOL-LA's program for UCLA Herb Alpert School of Music students and university music students provides teaching experience and job opportunities working with highly accomplished leading educators in the field of music and the performing arts. Advanced level high school students are given the opportunity to work with SOL-LA faculty while mentoring younger students through after-school instrumental practice sessions. The role of the mentor is to serve as a practice supervisor, coach, friend and role model and introduces mentors to the art of teaching. SOL-LA Tales from Around the World at the Broad Stage.SOL-LA Music Academy produced a series of three shows for ages 3 and up called "SOL-LA Tales from Around the World" in collaboration with the Broad Stage, A SOL-LA community partner and non-profit performing arts center in Santa Monica, CA.The SOL-LA Tales performances feature a visit to a country and cultural experience through a narration of a best loved children's story, music and dance followed by a workshop and community festival. At every performance at The Edye 2nd Stage at The Broad a large percentage of seats are reserved for children and parents with proven financial need. Each interactive workshop and festival celebrates the specific country visited during the performance and is coordinated by SOL-LA with the help of UCLA, Santa Monica College and SOL-LA student volunteers.In conjunction with SOL-LA Tales performances, SOL-LA launched a community arts outreach program reaching approximately 1,000 pre-school, kindergarten and first grade students in 40 local public and private schools where students participate in community service by creating art and music projects associated with the narrations which are exhibited at the corresponding events. Young students are presented with certificates of community service to the arts and are invited to participate in free SOL-LA group classes on campus.With the extensive art program at local public and private schools, the involvement of SOL-LA and Saint Anne School students, UCLA and school partners and theater goers, the series has reached approximately 2,000 people.SOL-LA Music Academy provides the following events over the academic year:- 10 recitals celebrating solo and ensemble performances of SOL-LA students at no charge, including 2 Honors Recitals which take place as the Santa Monica Public Library Main Branch.- 5 Up-Beat Musicale informal recitals in which students perform works-in-progress and learn performance etiquette in a relaxed and supportive setting.- A children's series of 3 presentations at The Broad Stage in Santa Monica titled "SOL-LA Tales from Around the World". - 2 to 3 Energy Concerts, showcasing performances by one or several SOL-LA instructors, open to the public.- Parent education workshops.- Special workshops and master classes with renowned artists.
