Armory of Harmony

CAUSE: Community Empowerment

CATEGORY: Visual Arts, Music

PROJECT DIRECTOR: Richard Gibbs

Armory of Harmony is a 501c(3) nonprofit organization founded by musicians with the mission of transforming weapons into instruments to support music programs in schools. They work with local law enforcement and other advocacy groups to upcycle weapons into tools of good - from trumpets to guitars to kalimbas. Firearms are the second leading cause of death among children and teens in America, and each year, Armory of Harmony repurposes tens of thousands of guns into instruments. Music is a universal language of healing, and Armory of Harmony believes in the value of arming students with instruments to inspire unity and healing.
