AVS at 2010 ASTA Conference – report

For the third time in four years, the American Viola Society had a booth at the American String Teachers Association national conference. Held in Santa Clara, California, from February 17-20, the conference offered numerous viola-centric presentations and master classes including a keynote address from JAVS Alternative Styles Contributing Editor David Wallace. At the AVS booth, we signed up roughly twenty-five members, at least twenty of whom are new to the organization.  Many thanks to several people who assisted with hosting the AVS booth during the exhibits: University if Northern Colorado instructor of string music education William Hinkie, current AVS board member Deborah Price, past-AVS board member Michael Palumbo and his Weber State University students Crystal Hardman and Amanda Kippen, AVS past-vice president and past-secretary Pamela Goldsmith, violist/composer Katrina Wreede, University of Alabama viola professor Daniel Sweaney, and AVS past-president Tom Tatton.
