The VCraneiolin Fest is an enrichment event for the local and regional violin community. Violin students of all ages (including adults) are welcome to apply and attend, though we recommend 6th grade and older, with some music reading ability. Teachers who bring students may attend the event for free. Violin Fest activities include violin group readings, an Alexander Technique workshop, and a master class and recital given by the guest artist. For more information, contact Dr. Emily Hanna Crane.
