Hello FAMI Community! We hope you are doing well and have been encouraged by the music in your life during these difficult times.

The FAMI Board has been considering how we might support our FAMI Instructors during the COVID-19 pandemic.  We have learned that a number of our FAMI Instructors are teaching using online resources and wanted to share this with you.  If you are missing the instructional opportunities that FAMI provides, consider arranging a lesson or two with any of the Instructors mentioned below!

FAMI is providing this listing as service to our community while physical distancing measures related to COVID-19 are in place. If you would like further information or to engage in lessons, please contact the Instructor(s) directly to set up whatever arrangements suit you both.
