Harmony Workshop
Hooray! We will be having the Harmony Workshop with Val Mindel & Gene Yellin on Saturday, October 29 in Poughkeepsie. The session will run from 1-5pm and the four hour workshop will cost $50 for HVBA members and $55 for non-members.

Given her experience in teaching harmony, Val promises a workshop that will be well worth your time. You may read more about it here and purchase your ticket now. This will be a small group in a home setting, so be sure to secure your spot early.
