Luke is extremely passionate about reaching students in underserved areas with top-tier arts programming. Ever since a string quartet came to his elementary school in rural West Virginia, he knows first-hand the power that exposure to the arts can have on young minds. That string quartet inspired him to start piano lessons and sparked a lifelong love for music- Luke hopes APO will be that spark for the next generation. 

Through live and virtual performances in schools throughout the country, The American Pops Orchestra has reached more than 650,000 students and 3,250 elementary schools since the inception of its Children’s Outreach Tour programming. APO offered free monthly programming via virtual streaming- teachers, parents and anyone with children in their life is welcome to register to join for free!
