Now is the perfect time to begin a new habit. A few lesson slots are open for fall. Harp lessons are unique, challenging, and highly rewarding. Rental harps are available so there is nothing stopping you from getting started. Students of all ages and aptitude are welcome: many adults beginners took piano lessons as children, and many younger learners come with no music experience at all. Our students have amazing opportunities to learn together, perform as a group, and support each other through harp activities year round. Our ensemble has had many invitations to performed at national events. Come try out the first lesson for free and see if it’s something you or a loved one might enjoy doing long term!
