I wanted to let everyone know that all groups will meet tomorrow. As always, if you have concerns about the roads, we understand and want you to be safe.
Welcome to the Encore Homeschool Fine Arts Blog. This blog will serve as a place to get information about our group as well as a place to read announcements and view pictures.
History
When my husband and I took our kids out of public school, we immediately saw a void in the area of fine arts. At first we tried going to a public school for band but quickly saw that as our kids got older, doing band four days a week, in the middle of the day, would be a huge distraction.
After some thought and conversations with other homeschooling families, it appeared that a group would benefit Lawrence and surrounding areas. With some phone calls, emails, and encouragement from friends and family, I started the Encore Homeschool Fine Arts groups in 2003.
What started out as a 17 member band, grew into four levels of band, two choirs, two string ensembles, guitar ensemble, preschool music class, and a percussion ensemble. I am thankful for a wonderful group of directors and the support of all our families!
Why participate in band, orchestra, or choir?
