The Howe Sound Music Festival is back for another year! 2012 marks the 11th year for the local Festival. Over those years, we have encouraged over 1000 young musicians from Britannia Beach to Pemberton! We have hosted amazing adjudicators, produced entertaining concerts, sponsored engaging workshops, and presented thousands of dollars in scholarships to deserving students.
The Howe Sound Music Festival is once again produced yearly by the Howe Sound Performing Arts Association. Veronica McPhee continues with the Executive Director position for 2012.
Perhaps you will consider donating a scholarship, volunteering your time, or advertising with us through in-kind or monetary donations. Please contact hsmfestival@gmail.com for more information.
Thanks to all our sponsors, donors, and volunteers for the last Festival. I hope you will consider donating your time, talents, and products with us again.
