The Touchstone Project

Founded in 2004, the Touchstone Project helps at-risk children achieve greater success in school through music instruction and performance. Started by The Center for the Arts of Wyoming, Ohio, the Touchstone Project provides no-cost instruction in stringed instruments to children in elementary schools which are selected based on economic need.

For a child to be successful in school and in life, it takes an early start in developing intelligence, consistent work habits, and a joy for learning. The specialized musical instruction that the Touchstone Project provides has been proven to develop these positive characteristics in children-- the characteristics that open doors to fulfilling dreams.

IN MEMORIAM:

On Friday 9/26/2008, our world lost a great man and a great philanthropist whose reach, unbeknown to many, extended into our community. Paul Newman and the Newman's Own Foundation were a big supporter for the Center's Touchstone Project. We want to express our gratitude and humility for their support and extend our sincere condolences to the Newman family, for their loss is also a loss for the rest of the world.

We dedicate our work to the memory of a great man, Paul Newman. Paul, you will be missed.
