IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy2Grp/Desc0Member services - The Association provides professional development, career building & support, and a community of peers for all teachers of stringed instruments. ASTA communicates its message through various methods including social media and printed and electronic pamphlets and brochures intended to further the goals of increasing school programs, improving university programs, and enhancing string performance throughout the country. In FY23, ASTA created a new brochure promoting string education in schools, called Celebrating Strings. Available as a brochure and slide deck for sharing prior to or during performances, ASTA created an English and Spanish language version of the resource for use by our members and the larger string teaching profession.

IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActyOtherGrp/Desc0Publications - ASTA publishes two peer-reviewed journals -the American String Teacher Journal, published quarterly and the String Research Journal. The American String Teacher Journal is written for all members and features articles related to string teacher and performance, with an emphasis on educational approaches for string instruments. The String Research Journal (SRJ) represents the research community of ASTA. Its purpose is to encourage and improve scholarship and research within the string education profession and to disseminate the results of this work to the string and larger music teaching communities. It is produced annually. ASTA also partners with Alfred publishing to distribute books created in past years, including the recently updated ASTA String Curriculum, the only curriculum guide focused on string teaching.
IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActyOtherGrp/Desc1Foundation - ASTA welcomes donors to support ASTA's programs. ASTA partners with the Foundation for the Advancement of String Education to fund scholarships for new teachers to attend the in-person ASTA conference. This year, those dollars allowed 1 educator to participate in the national conference, and helped subsidize an additional 13 FASE Diversity Fellows to participate in the conference offerings.
