ClarinetFest® 2025 Clarinet Learning Community Student Initiatives

 

In addition to all of the wonderful activities of a typical ICA ClarinetFest® event, the 2025 conference in Fort Worth will have a strong student-focused programming initiative. We welcome students of all ages, as well as their teachers and band directors, to participate in the opportunities designed specifically with YOU in mind. High school and middle school participants, accompanied by a parent or guardian, can attend the conference for just $30! Students that are not currently members of the ICA will also receive a free 1-year membership in the ICA. (Parent or guardian attendance is free of charge). Student Registration Scholarships are available as well. For more information, please contact [email protected].

ClarinetFest® 2025 will feature an Exhibit Hall Bingo and a Scavenger Hunt for students, as well as planned “meet-and-greets” with world-renowned soloists. Registered students are welcome to attend all conference concerts, recitals, and events. Clarinet pedagogy discussions and workshops will be available for band directors and private teachers to attend. Student events, as listed below, are also available for educators to observe.
