Our after-school program GR!ASP worked with students at SEED School

this year, who got to learn new instruments, form a band, and write

original songs together.

At our End-of-Summer Celebration event, more than 100 Girl Rock! DC youth and friends danced to DJs and bands, created beautiful art, and closed out the summer together in true Girls Rock! DC style.

We held our first workshop series this summer, with eight workshops curated by our youth leaders

and led by local teaching artists and facilitators. 100% of participants said the workshops

were fun and interesting!

All of this has been made possible by our Girls Rock! DCcommunity of supporters, volunteers, and friends. We’re soexcited to continue growing next year, with Summer Camp,GR!ASP, workshops, and more! Noel Schroeder,

Co-Executive Director, Girls Rock! DCGi

9This has not been an ordinary year for Girls Rock! DC. In 2019 we took time to nurture our rootsand let our leaves grow. We’ve transitioned from being all-volunteer led and brought on our veryfirst paid staff. This year, we’ve focused on deepening relationships and growing our team and

programs in a way that is truly driven by our values. But we’ve also branched out, introducing newprograms and activities to support DC’s young folks with music education year-round.

What an amazing year!
