Northside World Music School Grand Opening

Last week, Connor and I visited the Northside World Music School.

We met Sujata Venkateswar who is the Executive Director on the board. Other board members are Katchie Cartwright (Vice President – World Music Ethnologist), Nagamohan Annaluru (Secy – IT Professional), Aimee Coleman (Marketing), and Reddy Yeluru (Real Estate Developer). Sujata shared with us the vision for the school as well as areas where they are in need of help.
