The WV Sound Foundry is a nonprofit youth music performing arts program located in Masontown, WV, serving Preston and Monongalia Counties and surrounding area. The program offers private lessons, workshops, classes, and live music performance groups for all ages. Students receive a balance of private instruction, group practice, and live public performance to showcase their talents. Students are encouraged to choose which songs and genres they want to learn to become well-rounded musicians and confident performers. Our mission is to provide a unique music education experience and to develop confidence and youth involvement. We work to foster productivity and social responsibility through creativity, communication, and collaboration in the development and enhancement of musical performance and concert production skills through participation in a โbandโ style educational setting. Live public performances are used to showcase studentsโ talents as well as promote and fund-raise for local community efforts. The WV Sound Foundry teaches students that performing arts provides them with the tools to think creatively and use their talents to promote community involvement in fundraising for underprivileged youth and performances engaging the local community.
