Concert Attire Recycling
Concert Attire Recycling
Friends of Odle Music has a concert attire recycling program. Often our students wear their concert clothing only a few times before outgrowing them. If purchasing the appropriate concert attire is not within your family's budget, please speak with Ms. Hollyday, or email friends@odlemusic.org. We may have a supply of clothing that older students have outgrown and donated.

“The Diverse String Teachers Professional Development Fellowship aims to advance the inclusion, retention, and overall success of string music educators from historically excluded backgrounds. It serves as a protected intersectional space in which teachers can connect with peers. Fellows will share and process their unique experiences, grow their skill and confidence as pedagogues, learn from diverse mentors and industry experts, and position themselves as leaders in the string teaching profession through opportunities for professional networking and advancement.” - Fase.org
