In Friday’s (8/3) Baltimore Sun, Jon Meoli writes, “The newly-created Baltimore Symphony Youth Orchestra will call the new Carver Center for Arts and Technology in Towson home, Baltimore County Public Schools announced Friday. ‘Having the Baltimore Symphony Orchestras housed at Carver Center will provide opportunities and outreach to our students with musical enrichment activities,’ Karen Steele, principal of the Carver Center, said in the statement released by Baltimore County Public Schools. … The relationship with the BSYO, which will follow the soon-to-be defunct Greater Baltimore Youth Orchestras, ‘will invite community members to interact with our facility as a cultural center,’ Steele said. When school starts later this month, Carver students will move into a new $88 million building just north of downtown Towson. … In the announcement, BSO President and CEO Paul Meecham said the new Carver Center ‘not only boasts an excellent new building, but also shares the BSO’s mission to benefit young lives through quality arts education.’ ”
