FALL WORKSHOPS
In place of our Summer Seminar, regional workshops will be offered this fall in Conway, Jonesboro, and Texarkana. The Arkansas Board opted to offer these workshops to “kick off” the fall rehearsals in your area and give an opportunity for you to attend something closer to home. Workshops will focus on different aspects of handbells and ringing techniques, rhythms, how to survive your ringing year, reading sessions with repertoire for our February 2017 State Festival, and best of all—fellowship with other ringers.
These workshops will be less than a half day and are scheduled to allow time to travel at convenient times. There will be classes for beginning ringers, so this will be a good chance to start new people off right. We also hope those of you who haven’t been participating in our workshops will take this opportunity to check them out to see what you’re missing!
Conway's and Texarkana's have come and gone, but online registration with classes/schedule for the Jonesboro workshop is available now, and the registration fee is only $10 per person.
