Educational Programs
Part of Cheryse McLeod Lewis' personal mission as a professional classical singer is to educate and inform young people about classical music and the performing arts through educational outreach programs on a wide variety of topics. When young audiences have the opportunity to experience live classical music through engaging performances, it opens up a world of possibilities to them. Live performances and engaging discussions are also fun, positive, and uplifting ways to broaden the horizons of young people and tap into their creative imaginations. Classical music and the performing arts are wonderful vehicles through which to educate and entertain young audiences. If you are interested in booking an educational program for your school, after-school program, church, community organization, or summer camp, please contact Cheryse McLeod Lewis at Cheryse@SpecialOccasionSoloist.com, call (336) 285-0642, or submit an Information Request Form.
