GRAMMY Museum Student Leadership Council

Are you a student with leadership potential who is passionate about music? The GRAMMY Museum's Student Leadership Council will play an integral role in the educational programming of the Museum. The purpose of the Student Leadership Council is to provide youth a voice in all aspects of museum programs. Students will help spread the word about the GRAMMY Museum and be a walking example of how music engages and empowers students. Leadership, public speaking and event production are just a few of the skills students will gain through their involvement. Additionally, students will start a youth-driven online music magazine, providing them with hands-on editorial experience and an opportunity to build their resume.
