History
Since the 1980's, public school cutbacks in the arts have left our youth bereft of an essential part of education. Founded in 2007 as a non-profit 501 (c) (3) performing arts community school, SOL-LA's programs are designed to fill the gap in our youth's music education by providing comprehensive music and performing arts education from early childhood through high school and through music, transform the lives of children and the communities around them.
