Can’d Aid and New Frontier launch apparel collection for Appalachian music education

Can’d Aid and the Eastern Kentucky-based apparel brand New Frontier have launched a collaborative collection to support music education in Appalachia. All proceeds from the collection will benefit Can’d Aid’s ‘Instruments for Change’ program.

The collection, designed in Eastern Kentucky, features two original T-shirt designs and two hat styles. The designs include ‘My Grass Is Blue’, referencing Kentucky’s bluegrass heritage, and ‘Support Local Artists & Live Music’.

Can’d Aid works with musicians and community partners to provide instruments, music teacher grants, and hands-on musical experiences to under-resourced schools and youth programs throughout the Appalachian region.
