HORSE AROUND AIKENAiken Antique Show

Aiken Center for the Arts Orchestras

 

Aiken Youth Orchestra began in 2002 under the direction of USC Aiken Distinguished Professor Emeritus, Dr. Richard Maltz. Aiken Center for the Arts has nurtured and supported the Aiken Youth Orchestra for 21 years ensuring the sustainability of this offering for our area’s youth. As a commitment to this program, ACA provides scholarships to students for the duration of their middle and high school years, and this funding comes in the form of grants, donations, and ACA operations. The Aiken Center for the Arts music program includes a Beginning Strings Group to encourage students to begin their musical foundation and to better meet the needs of our community. This program is free and open to students ages 5 – adult with no experience on an instrument. Come Join US!
