American Harp Society in Dallas

With the goals of vitalizing the local harp community and enhancing the support for the local harpists in Dallas/Fort Worth area, the American Harp Society in Dallas was established in 1963.  We operate as a chapter of the American Harp Society, a non-profit organization, and our members consist of professional and semi-professional harpists, harp instructors, students of all ages and lovers of the harp. 

We promote opportunities for cultivating the appreciation for harp music, encouraging youth education, meeting and acquainting with other harpists, and sharing information through our annual events, competitions, masterclasses, special events and concerts.  

"Through education and awareness, the American Harp Society (AHS) in Dallas nurtures talent and creativity; promotes the harp among all harpists and the general public; awards grants and scholarships with organized competitions; provides encouragement to composers and arrangers to write for the harp; and seeks a close working relationship with accredited schools and music faculties to promote study of the harp."
