Our chapter is an organization that meets together to support and encourage the professional development of organists and the use of the organ in Southwest Missouri. We hold monthly meetings at different locations in the area, and our programs are geared towards providing education and support for organists, church music leaders, and organ enthusiasts. Membership is open to interested persons, and we invite you to join us as our guest for any upcoming meeting. Please join us! I hope to see you soon! T. Daniel Hancock, Dean |
