We are excited for the 2023 KMTA Conference, which will take place at Washburn University this fall! It will be a feast for the senses, showcasing the best in music pedagogy and performance. You will meet acclaimed music educators, performers, and entrepreneurs throughout Kansas and neighboring states. Attendees will experience a variety of performances, presentations, poster sessions, masterclasses, exhibits, and networking opportunities. College students and collegiate chapters are highly encouraged to join and even submit a proposal for presentation. In addition to the above, conference registrations include a Friday dinner banquet and a Saturday luncheon where you can relax, learn the latest KMTA news, meet new faces, and reunite with old friends and colleagues.
