I completed my Gold Award for Girl Scouts. The Girl Scout Gold Award is the highest award in Girl Scouting. Seniors and Ambassadors earn it by developing and carrying out lasting solutions to issues in their neighborhoods and beyond. It took me a total of 81 hours to complete this project.
It was a wonderful opputunity. As a result, I have been featured on the Urban Youth Harp Ensemble, as well as the article I wrote reviewing my concerts.
On both February 2nd and 8th of 2024, I hosted my concerts, The Colorful Creations of B.I.P.O.C. Artists. Both programs were hosted in my school's theatre, marking me the first student from my school to ever organize a concert. High schoolers from all over Atlanta were given the opportunity to perform a selection of their choice. Not only were they allowed to perform, they were able to ask personal questions to successful B.I.P.O.C. musicians from Atlanta.

Above are the stage plans I made in order to have a smooth running program.
I wrote programs for both concerts so that audience members could follow along with the different acts and performances.
