Our Wallace group home for girls in Nashville got to walk the Red Carpet at the Nashville Film Festival for the premiere of their original song they created in partnership with Livin’ Reel.
The Nashville Film Festival’s Livin’ Reel project connects local artists with at-risk youth to create an original piece of art. This year, the Wallace girls teamed up with local artists to create an original song called “I Choose” written and recorded by the girls in the home.
