Washington State American Choral Directors Association Invites you to attend:
WA ACDA Summer Institute July 17-19, 2024
We look forward to once again welcome you to the campus of the University of Puget Sound in Tacoma and to fill Kilworth Chapel with music and conversations.
We are confident that you will find ways to fill your cup with the love of choral music that we all need refilled at this point. To that end, we invite you to be fully present in the reading sessions, listen well to what your colleagues are saying as you connect at the Coffee Cabana, enjoy the delicious Salmon Dinner and be ready to build your conducting skills with the Dr. Rosephanye Powell Conducting Masterclass by adding your voice to the demonstration choir on Thursday evening.
You may register for all three days, or individual dates. We will have dormitory housing available for those not wishing to drive daily, just add that on to your ticket.
Pre- Registration with a discounted price, will open in January 2024 and will close on July 1, 2024.

If I register after Pre-Registraion will I be able to have Salmon Dinner reservations?
