Keys to the Community

Keys to the Community 1The Keys to the Community program strives to enrich the lives of Frankfort’s African-American children by giving them access to top-of-the-line piano instruction and exposing them to the wonders of classical music. It is sponsored by the Frankfort/Lexington Chapter of The Links, Incorporated in cooperation with the Division of Performing Arts at Kentucky State University.

The generous support of the Frankfort Lexington Chapter of The Links, Incorporated enables those admitted to receive free piano lessons with KSU's Piano Faculty and Students.
