Support for Lyre 2023

We are very pleased to be able to gather this summer for our first in-person lyre conference since 2019.  As part of our mission statement, the Lyre Association of North America has committed to making our annual conferences available to as many members as possible. Because of this commitment, we are appealing especially to you, our members and friends who are not attending this year's conference, to consider making a modest donation to LANA in order to offset the costs of our support to those who have appealed to us for financial aid scholarships. Any amount, small or large, makes a difference, and we thank you in advance for your continuing support of our efforts to bring the joy of the lyre to as many people as possible.  Please use this DONATE button to send your contribution:
