Grass Roots Who are we?
Higher Levin is a not for profit youth organization that was formed by Mr. Tichard Chapman in 2004 with the members of the advanced steel band at Meyer Levin Junior High School. The organization is designed to be a continuation program to the Performing Arts Department at Meyer Levin Intermediate School (I.S. 285). At present, we are predominantly a youth steel band. However, our goals and dreams far exceed that of the average steel band.
Higher Levin envisions an entire performing arts program which will in time be able to embark on musical excursions around the globe. It is the intention of Mr. Chapman to give the youths of Brooklyn an opportunity to showcase their talents around the world, showing others that there are positive things going on in our community.
With our dedication and your help, we can make this dream, a reality.
