Where to find them

Most of the region's arts, music & lessons are in Castlegar, Kimberley and Creston. In all, they are in 10 towns. Most of them have their own website, and the links below take you straight there.

Lessons follow the school year. Spots open in late summer and fill up by fall. Many teachers work from a home studio. They often have a simple website with their rates and the instruments they teach, which saves you a call. If your town shows nothing here, there is probably a teacher. I just have not found them yet.
