Summer Workshop X
I am pleased to announce that Summer Workshop X will take place on Tuesday, August 1, 2017, from 8:00 - 5:30 pm. All activities will take place in the Arts and Interactive Media Building on the College of New Jersey campus in Ewing. Below you will find our tentative session topic roster at this early stage of planning. All sessions are designed to be interactive, in a relaxed summer setting, so come prepared to utilize your voice, instrument, I-devices, and musical skills, in activities designed to be brought back to your classroom. Presenters needed: Although we are well on our way regarding sessions, we are still open to proposals from the membership. Please
