[musictlk] Summer Braille Music Institute in Philadelphia Invites Applications [cross-posted]

[Julie McGinnity]

Hi everyone.  This is a really great program.  I went twice, and I
loved it both times!  I learned a lot and made some awesome friends.
I would definitely recommend it.  Feel free to ask me any questions
you have about the program as well.
