Performing Groups

Join Us!

WFHEMA offers homeschool, private school, and public school students aged 8-18 quality group music instruction, performance outlets, and competition opportunities. While all of these benefits make this a worthwhile investment, perhaps the greatest benefit is watching your child develop a love for music that will last a lifetime.

To learn more and meet the directors, please contact us via email at:
