Students celebrating after a successful Just for You Music Program performance
Our Shepherd School students provide a variety of community engagement activities in the Greater Houston Area, and many initiate their own projects. However, the Shepherd School supports three major initiatives:
Just for U Music Program (JUMP!)
Just for U Music Program is a student-led, faculty-mentored outreach program serving Houston area schools.
New Art/ New Music
Located at the Moody Center for the Arts, New Art/ New Music is a collaborative partnership with the Rice University Gallery. Shepherd School students organize and perform concerts of new and contemporary music that complement installations at the Gallery.
Sviatoslav Richter Fund for Music Outreach
The Sviatoslav Richter Fund for Music Outreach provides financial support for student outreach projects that are selected through a granting process.
