The Lady of Harp Academy was founded in 2022 with a mission to create a more inclusive and culturally responsive music education experience for children from marginalized communities.
The idea took shape after I witnessed a culturally insensitive musical presentation. At that moment, I knew I had to do more. I had to help build something that offered meaningful representation, especially for children who rarely see themselves reflected in traditional music spaces.
That experience became the catalyst for The Lady of Harp Academy, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to providing a safe, harp-positive environment where young people can access resources, instruction, and performance opportunities that honor their identities and uplift their creative voices.
The Lady of Harp Academy was created to provide a safe musical space that centers children of marginalized communities. This affords them the opportunity to connect to their creativity through the musical arts while empowering them with the strength of their cultural identity.
