Bahia Vista Ensemble

Portia currently directs the Bahia Vista Ensemble at Bahia Vista Elementary in San Rafael, California.  The ensemble meets for ten week sessions during the school year and focuses on helping students at Bahia Vista gain exposure to the soothing presence of music and the harp in particular.  Classes meet after-school for one hour, once a week during each ten week session.

Mission Harp Ensemble

Portia co-directed the Mission Harp Ensemble with Diana Stork.  It was located at the Excelsior Neighborhood Clinic on Mission Blvd. in San Francisco.  The primary goal of MHE was to expose underprivleged youth to music and the harp.  Classes were held for one hour weekly during ten week sessions.
