Broad Ripple Kiwanis donation fosters launch of El Sistema Indy pilot

​A generous donation from the Broad Ripple Kiwanis (with a special boost from board member Helen Carroll), plus contributions from numerous other friends and supporters of El Sistema, permits us to move forward with the launch of a pilot program of El Sistema-inspired music education this spring.  The pilot program will be after school group ukulele lessons  at IPS School 87,  led by Carter Bell, music teacher at 87, and assisted by Professor Kathy Spangler and her students at Marian University.
