About us

We are a Nonprofit 501(c)3 under the leadership and direction of Arthur Thompson.

Deeply moved by the realities faced by at-risk children, as well as the drastic reduction of music and arts education in schools today, Arthur has made it his passion to go wherever the need exists to bring music, art, and joy to our youth!

Arthur has provided summer camps and school programs for children and youth with an incarcerated parent. Arthur has worked with children in Uganda, Nicaragua, and all over the United States. He created this foundation in order to expand his outreach and create an even larger impact.

Arthur is an established drummer, percussionist, vocalist, songwriter, and author. He also spent over 20 years as an elementary/middle school teacher and band director. He has created, grown, and developed music programs. In addition to traveling the world with his music, Arthur can also be found teaching his Drums Speak program. This program combines two of his passions: drumming and the youth! He has created a way to mix music and education by energizing, engaging, and inspiring children. He has an immense passion for both his music and the children that he works with on a daily basis.
