“Strings of Hope” is an innovative musical experience designed to bring addiction recovery and mental health out of the darkness and into the light of day. It was performed on June 1, 2022 at the Southern Theatre in Columbus, Ohio. The theater was transformed into a giant harp with the audience immersed inside. The Earth Harp, the world’s longest playable stringed instrument, was played by William Close.
