- Grady Cluster Music Club (GCMC) begins August 22nd and rehearses at Hope-Hill on Thursdays from 3:30-5:00pm (see info below)

If you love to sing and make music, come, even if you think you aren’t a great singer. If you practice you’ll improve!

Grady Cluster Music Club (GCMC) meets on Thursdays at Hope Hill from 3:30-5:00pm. The purpose of that club is for our cluster kids to get to know each other before they get to Inman. It includes: Modern Band, singing, dancing, drumming, ukulele, Orff instruments, and performing, but mostly it's about making musical friends.
