String Project Makes Music Affordable for Local Families


2 | NGU.EDU


Gone are the days when the only kids in Greenville, SC, learning to play music were the ones in families with enough spare cash to fork out $400-plus for a new instrument and $50 an hour for private lessons.


North Greenville University and Kroc Center Greenville have jumpstarted a new partnership that offers stringed instrument lessons to local grade school children for less than a visit to McDonald’s.


Officially launched in September 2018, the NGU/Kroc String Project started its inaugural sea- son with 20 elementary students and four current NGU students, who teach the children how to play stringed instruments, such as the violin, cello, or bass.
