Music and Mentoring House - the smart choice

Our mission:
Music and Mentoring House, Inc. is organized as a New York State non-profit organization that will cultivate a positive appreciation for the arts and culture, by enhancing the educational experience of artists by bringing them into closer contact with the general public through performances, lectures and other interactions. The corporation will provide a place where the public can come together and experience the arts, and to educate the general public through information as to the importance the arts play in society.
"I wanted to create an environment that is safe, affordable and supports artists of varying ages and disciplines on a variety of levels. I am interested in helping them meet their goals while also connecting them to a broader view of how we can make art and music in the 21st Century.
It's important to me that students get immediate experience in front of people. They need to try out their ideas and interpretations and get immediate feedback. More importantly, they need to understand the impact performing has as a vehicle of transformation for the artist and the audience. You can only get that when you have regular access to people coming to watch and hear you. So almost everything we do involves inviting the community inside to watch and hear. And there is always food. I really believe that magic can happen around food and music and a seat at the table. It's extremely helpful that I love to cook and I don't mind doing lots of dishes!"
Music and Mentoring House also provides low cost, extremely affordable programs for singers, hands on mentoring for artists of all disciplines, professional introductions and a safe place for artists coming to study, audition or transition to New York City.
"I try and make all of the programing at Music and Mentoring House so affordable that what little money students have can go towards lessons, outside coachings, books, music, local transportation and leisure activities."
Students have complete open access to Lauren's extensive library of sheet music, opera scores, biographies, poetry, plays, cd's dvd's and reference material. Students are aided in purchasing appropriate audition attire and the purchase of scores, music and other research material.
