*This event replaces Woodwind Workshops Day for flutists.

UW-Stevens Point is a special place for music students. We are large enough to offer a wide variety of experiences and challenges, and small enough that our students receive a great deal of individual attention. The atmosphere is filled with support, encouragement and music!
