What can you expect from Sweetgrass Flute School?
Over the past five years, Sweetgrass has had over 200 students participate in its annual Flute School. Sweetgrass promises to provide a fun, relaxed and safe environment that allows growth, not only musically; but spiritually. There will be opportunities to try new things, get outside your comfort zone and learn things about others and yourself! The faculty members are some of the best in the industry — knowledgeable, passionate and down-to-earth! Sweetgrass Flute School is held at Prairiewoods, a venue that is unlike any other and fosters openness to awaken or revive the passion that you have for the Native American flute. We hope that you'll join us for the Sweetgrass Flute School!
All activities are canceled for 2022.
