Hello,
I am looking for a harp camp to attend this summer that focuses more on playing the harp for enjoyment.

If you are an adult student check out HarpArts Retreat with Lynne Aspnes. They have a website and it is an amazing program.

Hi everyone!

Look for our extensive summer camp listing in the January issue of Harp Column. It should arrive in your mailbox soon! The list includes programs throughout North America for youth, adults, pedal, and lever harps. Hope this helps you!

Hello!
The case of courses depends on your age. Forgive me for not avidly stalking you to make a guess!
I’ve enjoyed a particular course for three years. The site is:
http://www.harpcourses.co.uk/
They offer a teenage course and a junior course, both very fun. The course is run by Ruth Faber.
