Sun's Blog - Week 1

Hey guys, it's Sun! For my senior project, i'm working with Jodi Kanter who is the director of the non-profit organization called M.U.S.i.C. What this organization does is fascinating. Basically, young classical musicians from Oberlin Conservatory music to Cleveland Institute of Music get to perform at house concerts. This organization gives these opportunities to uprising musi8cians to get more experience in music performances. M.U.S.i.C. isn't as big as Cleveland City Music or other music organizations in Cleveland, but it's certainly growing. Last concert, which was in March, drew around 100 guests at Hanah Perkins, and in addition to the sold out tickets, many people donated money to support the musicians. So overall, my task for senior project is to help out Jodi for May 15th condert.

So on my first day of the senior project, I went to Jodi's house and she and I spent time together to schedule what I should do everyday. Then the next day, which was Tuesday, I started working on editing the newsletter for this organization.. I edited some parts of the newspaper so that people who don't know about M.U.S.i.C. could understand about the organization better. After finishing working on the newsletter, I spent time copying some papers that Jodi wanted me to copy. Exciting moment came when I got to help Jodi out on how to create a facebook group invitation for her upcoming weaving exhibition. It was fun to follow Jodi around and watch how things are done to prepare for the house concert!
