Below is an outline of our proposed 2026-2027 events. Note, we are planning to revive our “Never-too-late” event offering an opportunity for members and guests to try various instruments. At this stage, our schedule has many events with tentative dates which will be added as the event is finalized. For now, we hope you will save the date.
