We are incredibly grateful to Dr. Mark Laycock for spending time with Nevada School of the Arts and sharing his expertise with students and educators across the Clark County School District.

Through a series of engaging classes and workshops, Dr. Laycock inspired students to think more deeply about music-making, leadership, and collaboration. We were especially excited to host him at NSA, where students had the unique opportunity to step onto the podium, lead an ensemble, and begin exploring the art and craft of conducting.

A special thank you to Karl Reinarz for his efforts in organizing and coordinating these impactful sessions.
