I have been involved here at SWOP in many different ways, one of them being through the guitar classes. I have been involved with these classes for over a year now. I started Guitar 1 in November of 2007, and I just finished up with Guitar 3. I learned about the Guitar classes through my mom. My mom talked to Rosina, the guitar instructor, and told her that I wanted to learn how to play guitar. I joined the classes, and I have improved greatly since then.
The reason I joined these classes is because I thought learning the guitar would be a good experience. I also wanted to get involved with SWOP because I wanted to learn more about what SWOP does. I thought that if I got involved through the guitar classes I could learn a little bit about SWOP. I eventually got even more involved with SWOP through the summer internship job. I learned a lot in the summer about Chicano rights and a lot of other topics that SWOP is involved with.
As you may know, I am currently a yearlong intern at SWOP. However, those are not the only ways I have been involved with SWOP. I have been to the South By Southwest gathering that was held here, back in June 2008. I have performed with the guitar classes at the Dia de Los Muertos parade, the South by Southwest event at the El Rey Theater, and at many other SWOP events.
The Guitar 3 classes currently just ended on December the 20th, and they started on September the 15th. The new semester of guitar classes will be starting on Monday January 19th to Thursday May 14th. Part of the SWOP music program will be a performance group/band, join us!
