Dear Iowa Music Educators

I am very excited to pass on to you that I.M.E.A. this year with the sponsorship of West Music will be hosting Connie Van Engen and Sarah Fairfield for a workshop rich in the Orff Schulwerk process in Des Moines, Iowa. This workshop will be full of activities that will get your kids active in class, and to use their creativity. This workshop is being offered for recertification credit or graduate credit at 2/3 the cost of anywhere else in the
state.

You can download a brochure for more information and register by clicking on this link or pasting it into your web browser.

Sincerely,
