The FOOD BANK EXPRESS 2022 welcomes Tabitha Payzant Music Studio of Mount Pearl aboard:

2022 has marked a year of change for the Tabitha Payzant Music Studio! This past August, we moved to a larger studio location, upgrading from a small upright piano to a grand piano as the primary studio instrument. Additionally, we have begun our first season of live recitals, monthly studio features, and more! We have had a terrific Fall in the new location, and many students have had the chance to develop a relationship with one of our three studio pets, Poco, the 8-month-old puppy, who is always ready for pets before and after lessons! We are very excited about our first year operating as a more professional studio, and can’t wait to participate in the Food Bank Express program this Holiday Season!

The FOOD BANK EXPRESS 2022 welcomes Noel Music Studio of St. John’s aboard:

My name is Kiersten Noel and I am the owner of Noel Music Studio in St. John’s where I teach private voice lessons.  At my studio, my number one goal is to instill confidence in each and every one of my students.  I want everyone to experience the joy of music and singing in a fun and supportive environment.  My true passion is in musical theatre, but I love teaching all genres of music to my students.  I tailor my lessons to each of my students’ specific needs, musical interests, and goals.

The beach has always been a place of calm and an inspiration of creativity for me.  My logo and studio décor tie together that partnership to create a peaceful and comfortable working space where my students can do their best singing!
