NORFOLK, Va. Music is his means and reaching kids is his mission.
Dr. Anthony Hailey started Mosaic Steel Orchestra in 2006, hoping to connect local youth with his passion for steelpan, more popularly known as steel drums.
“I saw a need in the community for children to have access to music programs that were relevant and accessible to them,” said Hailey.
He now has a new plot of land across from the Virginia Zoo in Norfolk to grow the non-profit along with a stage to share his mission with all of Hampton Roads.
