Cellists for Change was founded in October of 2020, a year marked by the height of the COVID pandemic, an increased national awakening to systemic racism, and a horrifically polarizing presidential election. A call to action could not have been louder. It is imperative now and always that we help our children stay strong, resilient, and confident that each of us is essential to building a future more equitable, connected and filled with promise.
Since our founding, we have served over 120 youth and 1,400 community members throughout Colorado, Iowa, and the Western Highlands of Guatemala.
