Does anything this cool ever happen in real life? You ask what something costs and instead of giving you the price, the seller offers it for free. That’s how the Joy of Music School got its new website. Executive Director Frank Graffeo asked Scott Brantley and Mary Byrne of Knoxville’s Umbrella Creative Group how much they would charge to build a new website for the School. These two remarkable people got back to him “within ten minutes of the email,” says Frank. Their price? Free. Gratis, on the house, zip, nada, pro bono. Frank couldn’t believe what he was hearing. As Scott explains: “Mary and I choose a nonprofit organization each year for this sort of donation. We had attended a fundraiser earlier in the year and knew about the work of the School, so it seemed like the perfect opportunity.” And are we ever grateful! The new site, still at http://www.joyofmusicschool.org, is up and running with many features the old site lacked. Perhaps most important, it works equally well on computers, tablets, and phones. So, that happened—in real life! Too cool for school? Not this one.
