Joshua M Lutz   Educator and Student

At 12 years of age Joshua Lutz caught the volunteering bug in a non-denominational church, volunteering in a nursery. He then played drums, bass and guitar in the church band with his dad, who played trumpet and toured with the Supreme’s and Dionne Warwick. Joshua has since taught music, art, design and audio engineering for over 25 years in dozens of facilities including Schools, Hospitals, Retirement Communities, DJJ Homes, Prisons, Park Districts, YMCA’s, Community Houses, and more. Today, Joshua served on the  NYQPL board, ran the School Of Visual & Audio Design (SOVAD), as well as his non-profit music outreach initiative Random Acts Of Songs (RAOS).
