Otis’ grandson Justin Andrews, Director of Special Projects and Outreach, and his daughter Karla Redding-Andrews, Vice President and Executive Director, describe the foundation’s music and arts education programs, which are designed to empower, enrich and motivate young people through music, writing and instrumentation. As a special treat for all Otis Redding fans, Justin and Karla gracefully share their insights about Otis Redding as a father, his music and his support for education.
