Cultural Art Strings
Cultural Art Strings was founded in 2012 by Aileen and Robert Rohwer as a division of Riverfolk Music and Arts to provide a voice to youth through string music education. Partnering with area churches, the program launched as a summer day camp to introduce violin, viola, cello, bass and a few years later, guitar. The program now runs year round with private lessons, group ensemble classes and community outreach. The program is open to all students ages 5-18 with a willingness to learn music.
