We encourage you to plan for an extra day before or after the conference, to explore the seacoast city of Beverly and historic Salem, just minutes away!

Held in partnership with Maine, New Hampshire and Vermont’s Music Teachers Associations, the conference will feature renowned inspirational speaker, pianist William Westney.  Dr. Westney is an internationally noted educator and holds two endowed positions at Texas Tech University – Paul Whitfield Horn Professor of Piano and Eva Browning Artist-in-Residence.  He won a grant from the U.S. State Department's Fulbright "Senior Specialist" program (Council for International Exchange of Scholars,) to teach throughout Korea and China in 2006.
