AHS-LA has completed our 2026 election.
The chapter’s sincere thanks go out to all the candidates, who came forward willing to volunteer their time and energy to bring the chapter into its next chapter! We look forward to continuing our long history of celebrating and supporting each other in this great community of harpists, harp students and teachers, harp craftspeople and vendors, their family members, and enthusiasts of all things harp!
And remember, you don’t have to be an officer or on the board to be a great help to the chapter! We always need volunteers to help at events and with behind-the-scenes tasks. We need people in the audience to enjoy the performances and other events. Teachers can encourage their students to participate. Family members can be a great support system and join in the fun.
