Long Beach High School's Music Department Gifted New Keyboard Case
Musician Joanne J-Bird Phillips donated a new keyboard case to the Long Beach High School music department through her namesake non-profit.
The Long Beach High School music department was gifted a new travel keyboard case by J-Bird Music for the Arts Inc., a 501©(3) non-profit, founded by professional musician Joanne J-Bird Phillips.
“Both my children are professionals in the arts,” said Phillips. “My daughter Elyssa, who is a member of Actors Equity, got her start in the Long Beach High School theater department, so I decided to do something to support music and arts programs in the district.”
J-Bird Music for the Arts Inc. was founded in 2010 to promote the arts in New York. The new case will make it easier and safer to transport the keyboard to offsite performances.
