Largest vendor hall in Southeast!




Enter a new world --

the Southeastern Harp Weekend --

at a wooded retreat center, in Asheville North Carolina. 

One hundred of acres of trees, big stone fireplaces in rustic buildings; it feels almost like the setting for the movie "Dirty Dancing."   Reasonable lodging ($23-$47 per person per night) and very reasonable (and good) food make this weekend like a big harpers' sleepover! 


You'll have harp tasting, one of the largest shopping opportunities in the country, and world-class presenters, workshops and concerts.  And tuition is only $198.


The conference attracts participants from 33 states and five countries, so you also have great camaraderie.  Friday and Monday are optional fantastic add-ons to the weekend.


Welcome to an experience of friendly, warm folks, special discovery, love, and deep learning, the Southeastern Harp Weekend.

SO many harps to try.”
