Request for Advertisers and Exhibits - February 24, 2023

Overview

This coming July 4-7 the Twin Cities Chapter of the American Guild of Organists is welcoming over 150 organ lovers to Minneapolis and St. Paul for the North Central AGO 2023 Regional Convention.   The Twin Cities AGO chapter will provide convention goers the opportunity to celebrate our North Star State identity with great music for the organ–in solo concerts, in worship, and with choirs and orchestra. The exciting and varied venues in the Twin Cities, with their noteworthy pipe organs, will be the setting for outstanding performers of the highest artistic standard, and for informative, relevant workshops. AGO members and friends of the organ from around the Midwest will come together for unique musical experiences, continuing education, professional development, time with colleagues and friends, and the chance to experience the vibrant Twin Cities cultural scene.
