Soundscapes exists today thanks to the vision and leadership of Co-founder Anne Henry, who guided the organization’s growth for 13 years as Executive Director. Her passion for using music to empower youth united a strong community of leaders and supporters. In May 2022, Anne transitioned to Director of Government Initiatives, where she continued to build vital connections to support Soundscapes’ mission. At that time, then-Development Director Carol Minter stepped into the role of Executive Director.

We’re honored to share that Soundscapes has been awarded a 2026 grant from the Find Your Light Foundation! 💛
This support helps us provide accessible, high-quality music education to young people across our community, creating space for them to grow as musicians, build confidence, and find connection through the arts.
At Soundscapes, we believe every young person deserves the opportunity to discover their voice and experience the joy of making music. We’re grateful to partner with organizations like Find Your Light that recognize the arts as an essential part of youth development.
Thank you for investing in our students and helping us make a lasting impact. 🎶✨
