It is important for all people to feel as though they are not only equal, but valued. Teaching young girls empowerment through musical education, performance and creative expression is all a part of this, and Girls Rock Santa Barbara are proud to be a part of this effort.
With a safe space to express themselves in, girls from all backgrounds can acquire skills that will benefit them throughout their lives. This might include taking musical lessons to learn how to play an instrument like a guitar. It could also mean attending workshops designed to encourage musical collaboration, or even a fully-fledged performance once they’re feeling comfortable and confident. Whether they wish to perform solo, or strike up a band, any young girl can feel safe and secure in their learning.
Take a look at this guide to discover how to choose a guitar for your child, and watch them begin their musical journey.
