Darvin Lau is musician, entrepreneur and small business owner based in Brooklyn, NY. After witnessing children living in poverty during a trip to Hong Kong and China when he was 12 years old, he has since committed his life to the calling that God has put on his heart to speak life and truth into the world through music.
This led him to eventually teach music to children; starting off with two kids in the basement of a Brooklyn community center. Through his conviction to help children and his personal faith in God, he was able to overcome the challenges that came and eventually opened his own music school studio called the Bay Ridge School of Music.
Every Friday night, his music school studio opens up their doors to kids in the community for youth group programs. Kids have a safe place to be away from the streets and learn about faith, hope, and love through music. In addition, they also build free music programs for children in homeless shelters in Brownsville. Their ultimate mission is to be able to bring their students from New York to serve and teach music to children in need to different parts of the world like China and Africa.
Currently, the Bay Ridge School of Music teaches close to 300 students every week, with a staff of over 20 instructors. His music school studio recently performed at the world famous Carnegie Music Hall and was awarded the best music school in Brooklyn for 2022.
