Creative Impressions has empowered 1,000+ community youth through quality choral, cultural and civic experiences since 1996. Through weekly sessions, members receive instruction in music theory, sight-singing, performance technique and other fundamentals in the music discipline, while providing small-group mentorship. By participating, members discover their ability to impact their lives and enrich their artistic communities; they also build meaningful relationships and accountability amongst their peers, develop positive self-images, and learn respect for others. There are currently 48 youth enrolled throughout Richmond, Columbia, McDuffie, Burke and Aiken counties.
