Press Play on the Future

This December, Guitars Over Guns invites you to experience the power of youth creativity,
 through music made across our communities.
On December 23, we are proud to release all new music videos from our Guitars Over Guns regions, 
a collection of original work created by students who are using music to express who they are, 
where they come from, and what they dream of becoming.

These videos are more than performances. 
They are reflections of mentorship, healing, confidence, and community.
Across classrooms and creative spaces, students collaborated with trained mentors to write, 
produce, and perform music rooted in their lived experiences. 
Every verse reflects growth. Every beat reflects belonging. Every story reflects possibility.
As the year comes to a close, we invite you to pause, press play, and witness what happens 
when young people are given the tools, space, and support to create.

Greatness Begins
