We are adjusting our membership structure this year to support the national Orff chapter AOSA. We will no longer have a local membership fee, instead we encourage you to invest in becoming a national member. Students, you can receive a free membership! A membership to AOSA will not only give you a discount to our workshops, but will give you access to a plethora of resources.
