Virtual Winter Workshop

Friday, February 26, 2021 – Saturday, February 27, 2021

Join us for Handbell Musicians first Virtual Winter Workshop. This is an opportunity to work with a wide range of expert instructors on an assortment of handbell related topics. During this stressful time of the pandemic, when we can’t gather in person, take advantage of this chance to learn, grow and share your enthusiasm from the comfort of your own home. The only equipment required is your computer and a solid internet connection. Having bells at home may enhance the experience of some of the courses but are not required. Instructors include Paul and Stevie Berryman, Marie Clyatt-Larson, Mitchell Eithun, Linda Krantz, Venita MacGorman, Kristen MacGorman Maupin, Derek Nance, Michele Sharik, and Kath Wissinger.  The two-day virtual workshop will include twelve sessions with nine different track options. The tracks range from just a single session to four sessions long. Registrants will be able to attend 12 sessions live and then have access to watch the recordings of all sessions for a week following the event.
