When the Musical Mentorship Initiative was first founded in 2020, the ongoing COVID-19 Pandemic prevented us from providing in-person musical instruction. Instead, we could only offer instruction online. However, now that the entire Bard community is fully vaccinated, and we’ve finally been able to emerge from pandemic-life, we are able to start providing in-person music lessons.Mentees can now decide whether they would like to have online lessons over Zoom or in-person lessons held on Bard campus.
